As a result of the agreements on technical cooperation between CIAT and the Ministries of Finance of Spain, France, Italy and the German Agency for international Cooperation, these countries have a permanent mission at the CIAT Executive Secretariat, with a senior official who works on the development of various activities of the Center.

The participation and support afforded by these European countries have been very important in CIAT’s development and consolidation and will be even more important in the future, because of their contribution of technical and financial resources, as well as the great possibilities for using the knowledge and successful experiences of these countries for the benefit of the CIAT tax members.
