Delivered WCO Risk Management and Data Analytics Workshop in Uzbekistan

I had the privilege of co-facilitating the WCO Risk Management and Data Analytics National Workshop for the State Customs Committee of the Republic of Uzbekistan. The event was held from 16 to 19 June 2025 and conducted under the framework of the SECO-WCO Global Trade Facilitation Programme (GTFP) Phase II.

This workshop was co-facilitated with WCO accredited Technical and Operational Advisor Pipat Sirijumrasskul from Thailand Customs.

During the workshop, we focused on:

• AI use cases in the area of Risk Management
• Hands-on sessions on the WCO DATE model for fraud detection
• Review of the current risk management status
• Assistance in drafting a Risk Management Enhancement Plan for Uzbekistan Customs

The mission was generously supported by the State Secretariat for Economic Affairs of Switzerland (SECO).
