RESOURCES Ressources humaines: Ressources financières Au Siège Dans les régions ACP En Europe Ressources financières 2. Human Resources The CDE Brussels headquarters is composed of a professional team of around 60 staff members, most of them from the private sector. There are also some detached experts from other institutions to strengthen the work force as well as to exchange work methodologies and bring in their professional experience. This is turn favours inter-institutional dialogue thus creating new opportunities for synergy and complementarity ……………. CDE also collaborates with associated consultants in the framework of more technical work linked to sectoral programmes. These consultants are specialized in particular sectors and are employed under short-term contracts of 60, 120 or 180 days (subscription type contracts). In this manner the CDE can rapidly call upon their expertise for specific files avoiding long and tedious call for tender procedures. In the field, the CDE is progressively opening its regional offices managed by senior staff members. Four Regional Offices are already fully operational (West Africa, East Africa, Southern Africa and the Caribbean), the two others will be operational by the end of 2006 (Central Africa and the Pacific). These regional offices will also employ one or more local experts and wherever possible detached experts from one of the European Cooperation Institutions. These offices which offer a more specific knowledge of the social economic context as well as in depth information about the targeted regions can, with the help of intermediary organizations, propose and structure sectoral development programmes better adapted to the local needs. Nevertheless, in some ACP countries the CDE has employed private companies to function as Technical Intervention Offices (TIO) which can identify, prepare and more importantly, locally manage interventions in support of local enterprises. The CDE also benefits from a vast network of antennas in nearly all ACP countries which function as Information and Promotion Offices (IPO). In certain ACP countries, specialized correspondents may also be called upon for specific technical work. Most of the time, these are technical (or other) centres in countries and regions with a high potential in a particular sector. The CDE has also developed a European Network, involving institutions, Chambers of Commerce and Industry and others which act as a link between not only the European enterprises but also with training centres and specialized institutions. Some institutions develop programmes or projects in conjunction and/or in co-financing with CDE. The CDE does not neglect European entrepreneurs and intermediary organizations as partners in the development of ACP enterprises. In this regard, the Centre supports all initiatives promoting contact between EU and ACP enterprises.
