The Governor of the Central Bank of Libya, Naji Mohamed Issa, participated last Monday (21 September) in the second meeting of the National Committee for Organizing and Coordinating International Support.
Established by the Tripoli Prime Minister’s Decision No. 422/2026 and chaired by the Minister of State for Prime Ministerial and Cabinet Affairs, Mohamed Omar Bin Ghalboun, the committee is tasked with formulating the necessary frameworks and guidelines to organize international cooperation and support programmes, ensuring they are aligned with national priorities and needs.
The meeting discussed mechanisms to activate the committee’s operations and enable it to perform its assigned tasks. It also addressed the establishment of a clear institutional framework to ensure effective coordination among various national entities and to unify efforts regarding international support programmes and projects. These measures aim to enhance the efficiency of utilizing such support, minimize duplication and overlapping mandates, and safeguard the confidentiality and privacy of sensitive sovereign data.

Furthermore, the meeting addressed the creation of an electronic system and a unified national database to inventory, document, and track grants, programmes, projects, and forms of international support. This initiative aims to provide accurate, up-to-date data, enhance transparency and governance, and facilitate the monitoring of programme implementation and the assessment of their results and impact.
During the meeting, the Governor affirmed the Central Bank of Libya’s support for the committee’s efforts and activities within the Bank's mandate.
He emphasized the importance of establishing an integrated national coordination mechanism among relevant entities and aligning international support with the state's actual priorities and reform and development plans, thereby maximizing the benefit derived from available resources and programs.
The meeting takes place within the framework of efforts to manage international cooperation and support more efficiently and transparently—based on institutional foundations—and to enhance coordination between state institutions and international partners, thereby serving national priorities and supporting development efforts as well as economic and financial stability.
