Network of CEF Coordinators
The CEF Coordinators are representatives from ministries of finance, tax administrations, and central banks, focusing on capacity development and strategic management of human resources in their organizations. Their work is closely tied to CEF governance, as they are a key part of its structure, influencing both strategic and operational aspects.
As strategic partners, CEF Coordinators contribute to the CEF’s Strategic Direction, implemented through the CEF program. They identify learning needs to ensure that the Learning and Knowledge Sharing Program is tailored accordingly.
We encourage Coordinators to promote individual and institutional contributions to national and international knowledge flows, establish a knowledge-sharing culture, and enable and facilitate peer-to-peer learning. Additionally, as part of the WeLead project, CEF Coordinators will focus on talent retention to address the brain drain of young public officials from their institutions and countries.

2025 Highlights
In 2024, the network members met for their bi-annual meeting titled “Greening by Advancing the Collaborative Ecosystems in Public Institutions: The Case of CEF Coordinators”. The meeting highlighted the importance of the people and the quality of their interactions in making positive steps towards achieving sustainable development goals.
In December 2024, some network members will join a study visit focused on talent retention in the public sector of Finland.
In 2025, we plan to deliver various activities, including joint online meetings for all network members, as well as specific online meetings for different groups of coordinators—tax coordinators, central bank coordinators, and ministry of finance coordinators.
In 2026, CEF Coordinators will again meet in person at their regular meeting.
