Overview

— RTP Coordination platforms The engine of the Round Table Process The RTP consists of ten Sector Working Groups (SWGs), who are the key coordination platforms for each thematic area of development in Lao PDR.

The SWGs are led by the Government and include diverse development stakeholders, civil society organisations and representatives from the private sector. The groups serve as discussion forums, aim to build consensus on development priorities, and make development cooperation more effective, as set out in the Vientiane Declaration.

A relevant Ministry chairs each group while development partners, based on their priorities, serve as co-chairs. The International Finance and Cooperation Department in the Ministry of Finance acts as an overall coordinating agency.
