Agreed. A large turn-out from all the Pacific DMCs at the workshop, including finance ministries, maritime and aviation authorities fostered interest in the project and facilitated knowledge sharing and contributed to project outcomes. A high turnout at workshops with multi-sector representatives from many DMCs helps to foster knowledge sharing and develop awareness, adoption and uptake of TA project initiatives building institutional capacity and driving and guiding national or sector guidelines.
