The International Trade Centre (ITC) is the technical cooperation agency of the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) and the World Trade Organization (WTO) for operational, enterprise-oriented aspects of trade development.
Providing access to economic data sources to economic researchers has been one of TIPS's key contributions to capacity in the field of economic research for a number of years. The ITC's online tools Trade Map, Product Map and Market Access Map, which make available trade statistics and market and product information, are available to all users in South Africa thanks to financial support from TIPS and the Dutch and Swiss governments.
