>Technical Cooperation among Developing Countries - known as TCDC - is
>essentially a process whereby two or more developing countries pursue
>>their individual or collective development through cooperative exchanges
>>of knowledge, skills, resources and technical know-how.>
>Ideally, TCDC activities should be initiated, organized and managed by
>developing countries themselves with their governments playing a lead
>>role while involving public and private institutions, non-governmental>organizations and individuals.
>
>TCDC can include all sectors and all kinds of technical cooperation
>activities of developing countries, whether bilateral, multilateral, sub
>regional, regional or interregional in character.
>
>The challenge is to marshal innovative approaches, methods and techniques
>that are particularly adapted to local needs without supplanting existing
>modalities of technical cooperation which have proven useful.
>
>The ultimate goal of TCDC is the promotion of national and collective
>self-reliance among developing countries, on the one hand, and global
>interdependence, on the other.
>
>5. What are the pivotal countries?
>
>Pivotal countries are developing countries that, by virtue of their
>capacities and experience in promoting South South cooperation, are
>positioned to play a 'lead' role in the promotion and application of
>>TCDC, mainly by sharing their capacities and experience with other
>>developing countries in their region or in other regions.>
>The concept of pivotal countries was created in 1995 within the new
>directions given to TCDC by the High Level Committee following
>recommendations of the United Nations General Assembly.
>
>The following are the 22 countries first identified as pivotal >countries:
>Brazil, Chile, China, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, Egypt, Ghana, India,
>Indonesia, Malta, Malaysia, Mauritius, Mexico, Nigeria, Peru, the
>>Republic of Korea, Senegal, Thailand, Trindad and Tobago, Tunisia and
>>Turkey.>
>6. What is the Buenos Aires Plan of Action?
>
>The document is the result of a Conference held in Argentina's capital in
>1978, gathering 138 countries. It aims at Promoting and Implementing
>Technical Cooperation among Developing Countries (TCDC).
>
>The concept of TCDC already existed and had been thoroughly studied and
>analyzed for over five years on the international and interregional
>>levels to have its principle objectives spelled out in Buenos Aires.>
>Endorsed by the General Assembly, the Buenos Aires Plan of Action
>>presents 38 recommendations for the enhancement of TCDC focused on the
>>purpose of increasing the capacity of the developing countries,
>>developing their awareness and confidence in each other capabilities.
