　　第一次政府采购研讨会于2015年7月在基辅举办，目的是帮助乌克兰官员和私营企业了解GOU，了解政府采购协定（GPA）对乌克兰市场准入、商业环境的影响，以及加入GPA后随之而来的各种潜在问题，还包括一个有关电子采购的项目。第二次研讨会将在2015年10月举办，将集中力量进一步向乌克兰官员和私营企业传播有关政府采购新方法和新程序的知识，尤其是新的政府采购有关法令。

　　研讨会的结果是使乌克兰政府官员能够更好地正确运用政府采购协定（GPA）有关概念、原则和条约义务等，还可以使乌克兰私营企业更深入了解加入GPA的利益和代价。

　　Government Procurement Workshop in Ukraine
　　October 20, 2015 - October 22, 2015

　　CLDP, in cooperation with the International Trade Administration （ITA） and the Ministry of Economic Development and Trade of Ukraine （MEDT） will hold a Government Procurement Workshop for the officials from MEDT and other ministries and agencies responsible for the government procurement in Ukraine. Ukraine is in the process of acceding to the Government Procurement Agreement （GPA） of the WTO. CLDP has assisted this process by facilitating the attendance of GOU officials to GPA meetings in Geneva in February and June of 2015. The first workshop on government procurement was held in Kyiv in July 2015 and was aimed to increase awareness of GOU officials and private sector of the impact of the GPA upon Ukraine market access and business environment, as well as potential problems associated with the implementation of the GPA, including a proposed program of e-procurement. The second workshop will be held in October 2015 and will focus on further dissemination of knowledge to the Ukrainian officials and the private sector on new methods and procedures of government  procurement based on the newly adopted legislation.
　　As a result of the workshop, Ukrainian government officials will have a better capacity to correctly apply GPA concepts, principles and obligations; and the private sector will be more aware of the benefits and costs of the accession.
