“These opportunities will help the government identify and learn from relevant experiences as it designs and implements its own reform agenda”, said Manuel Escudero, the Chair of the OECD Development Centre Governing Board. In a 2019 country note document, the OECD highlighted El Salvador’s “production diversification and improving competitiveness of micro, small and medium enterprises” and the “envision of energy sources diversification, with priority given to renewables and the integrated management of the hydric system”.
In addition to longstanding fruitful relations with the Development Centre, El Salvador enjoys cooperation with various OECD initiatives. El Salvador is a member of the Global Forum on Transparency and Exchange of Information since 2011. It has also adhered to the Declaration on Strengthening SMEs and Entrepreneurship for Productivity and Inclusive Growth in 2018. El Salvador is also part of the Steering Group of the OECD Latin America and the Caribbean Regional Programme and joined the other participating countries in welcoming the Programme’s OECD LACRP Action Plan: Integrity for Good Governance in LAC.
