UNECE advances digital transformation of multimodal data and document exchange in Moldova and Ukraine
UNECE has joined hands with the Economic Council to the Prime Minister of the Republic of Moldova to help integrate Moldova and Ukraine in a seamless multimodal digital data and document exchange using the e-business standards of UNECE subsidiary body - the United Nations Centre for Trade Facilitation and Electronic Business ( UN/CEFACT ).
