Tuesday, 24 March: Anti-Corruption and Global Strategy
On 24 March in the morning, President Abinader will visit the headquarters of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). He is slated to deliver an address during the opening ceremony of the Global Anti-Corruption & Integrity Forum and sign a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to strengthen institutional integrity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The President\u2019s Tuesday schedule is heavily focused on economic development and international policy:
\u2022 Investment meetings: Consultations with French business leaders and investors to discuss the Dominican Republic’s economic climate.
\u2022 Open government: A meeting with Aidan Eyakuze, CEO of the Open Government Partnership (OGP), an organization where the Dominican Republic has sought to improve public service and government accountability.
\u2022 OECD Development Centre: A working lunch with OECD Secretary-General Mathias Cormann, followed by a special session with the 55 member countries of the OECD Development Centre (DEV) Governing Board.
\u2022 Vision 2036: During this session, Abinader will present the Dominican Republic\u2019s national priorities under the “Strategy 2036” framework, which seeks to double the nation’s GDP over the next decade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Dominican Republic has formalized a strategic partnership with the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) to accelerate the nation\u2019s entry into the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), a move intended to bolster investor confidence and anchor the country\u2019s bid to become a regional hub for the semiconductor industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
