Participants discussed strategies for sustaining and increasing investments in customs capacity building, recognizing the need for comprehensive approaches that leverage new and existing partnerships. The aim is to foster a collaborative environment conducive to sharing best practices and resources.

A significant portion of the meeting was dedicated to the implementation of the WCO Performance Measurement Mechanism (PMM). This initiative is designed to provide a standardized framework for assessing and enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of customs administrations worldwide.

The discussions and outcomes of the 15th meeting reflect a collective ambition to navigate the complex and evolving landscape of international trade and security. By focusing on strengthening capacity and performance, the WCO and its members are laying the groundwork for a more secure, efficient, and resilient global customs network.

ROCB Europe remains committed to supporting these initiatives and facilitating the region's active participation in the WCO's capacity building efforts. We extend our gratitude to all participants and organizers of the 15th WCO Capacity Building Committee meeting for their dedication and contributions towards achieving our shared goals.
