The USAID-sponsored Libya Public Financial Management project (LPFM/Bab Al-Tamkeen) conducted four intensive training workshops on legislative drafting in Misurata at the Bar Association, on September 20, 21, 24, and 27. The training included 35 lawyers and policy specialists from the private and public sectors.
The training sessions aimed at strengthening the participants’ understanding of legislative drafting techniques – which are not taught in standard legal studies – and their ability to translate legislative objectives into effective legal and regulatory reforms. These sessions are part of LPFM’s support for improving the business enabling environment and stimulating economic growth in Libya through regulatory and policy reforms.
LPFM/Bab Al Tamkeen is a 5-year initiative sponsored by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and implemented by The Pragma Cooperation in Libya. It provides technical assistance and capacity building at national and municipal levels to strengthen Libya’s public financial management, revitalize its electricity sector, improve the delivery of key public services, and stimulate job and private sector growth.
