Online, 13:00-15:30 IST / 08:30-11:00 CET

The Indo-German Working Group on Quality Infrastructure was established in 2013 by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy (BMWi, now: German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action - BMWK) and the Indian Ministry of Consumer Affairs, Food and Public Distribution (MoCAF & PD). It aims to reduce technical barriers to trade, and to strengthen product safety and consumer protection. The Annual Meeting serves to report on the political and technical achievements of the working group and to agree on new topics and priorities for the cooperation through signing the Work Plan 2022.


In addition to the two partner ministries, further ministries, subordinate authorities and QI bodies as well as industry associations, companies and interested stakeholders are invited. We look forward to your participation!
