Project Description
The impact of PPP Phase III will be continuing improvements in efficiency and effectiveness of development management in the GMS for sustained socio-economic development of the region. The intended outcome of the TA is to build capacity of GMS government officials, strengthen GMS institutions, and encourage knowledge generation and dissemination. PPP aims to accomplish this by strengthening the technical and managerial capabilities of civil servants in the GMS through a series of carefully designed learning activities and networking opportunities. It is expected that these civil servants will act as catalysts for change both nationally and regionally. The TA will also provide platforms for knowledge sharing and dissemination through alumni networks, research, and publications.

Thailand is the most urbanized country in the GMS, with just over half of the population living in towns and cities. Bangkok is the countryâs largest city, and an international hub for trade and travel. The countryâs 100+ special economic zones have helped drive employment and trade in many secondary towns and cities, including those in border areas near Cambodia, the Lao PDR, and Myanmar.
