The International Trade Centre (ITC), a joint agency of the United Nations and the World Trade Organization, supports developing countries in leveraging expanding trade opportunities within an increasingly complex global environment. ITC promotes sustainable and inclusive development through trade.

The Making Trade Happen (MTH) project builds on the achievements of the UK Trade Partnerships (UKTP) and SheTrades Commonwealth+ (STC+) programmes to strengthen the long-term capacity of trade institutions and SMEs.

By embedding technical expertise within national trade support organisations, facilitating commercial partnerships, and helping exporters navigate evolving market requirements, MTH project aims to transform preferential market access into tangible trade opportunities, institutional resilience and lasting sustainable economic growth.
