This session will be held to launch OSBP Status Report, jointly developed by AUDA-NEPAD and JICA followed by the statement among AU institutions, RECs, and private companies. The discussion will explore opportunities for leveraging tools developed by AUDA-NEPAD and partner organisations-oriented tools, such as Time Measurement Survey, and innovative private sector-oriented M&E tools like the Logistics Monitoring System (LMS). Additionally, emphasis will be placed on the importance of promoting these tools and fostering collaboration, focusing on leveraging both emerging technologies and traditional approaches to enhance border efficiency and effectiveness.
