The Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSME) Sub-Fund aims to directly involve developing APEC MSMEs in project activities to support MSME-led work to reduce poverty and build inclusive economies. The Women and the Economy Sub-Fund aims to institutionalise and provide ongoing support to advance APEC’s objectives of increasing women’s economic participation. The APEC Policy Support Unit’s mission is to provide APEC robust research and analysis to support APEC fora and members so that policy development is evidence-based.
