demonstrated interest in issues relevant 

to U.S. African trade and investment or 

have personal experience or expertise in 

United States-sub-Saharan African 

trade. 

For eligibility purposes, a ‘‘U.S. 

organization’’ is an organization 

established under the laws of the United 

States, that is controlled by U.S. 

citizens, by another U.S. organization 

(or organizations), or by a U.S. entity (or 

entities), determined based on its board 

of directors (or comparable governing 

body), membership, and funding 

sources, as applicable. To qualify as a 

U.S. organization, more than 50 percent 

of the board of directors (or comparable 

governing body) and more than 50 

percent of the membership of the 

organization to be represented must be 

U.S. citizens, U.S. organizations, or U.S.

percent of the organization’s annual 

revenue must be attributable to 

nongovernmental U.S. sources. 

7. For members who will serve in an 

individual capacity, the applicant must 

possess subject matter expertise 

regarding sub-Saharan Africa trade 

issues. 

In order to be considered for TACA

• Name, title, affiliation, and contact 

information of the individual requesting 

consideration. 

• If applicable, a sponsor letter on the 

organization’s letterhead containing a 

brief description of the manner in which 

international trade affects the 

organization and why USTR should 

consider the applicant for membership. 

• The applicant’s personal resume. 

• An affirmative statement that the 

applicant and the organization they 

represent meet all eligibility 

requirements. 

USTR will consider applicants who 

meet the eligibility criteria in 

accordance with equal opportunity 

practices that promote diversity, equity, 

inclusion, and accessibility, based on 

the following factors: 

• Ability to represent the sponsoring 

U.S. entity’s or U.S. organization’s and 

its subsector’s interests on sub-Saharan 

Africa trade matters. 

• Knowledge of and experience in 

trade matters relevant to the work of the 

TACA and USTR. 

• How they will contribute to trade 

policies that eliminate social and 

economic structural barriers to equality 

and economic opportunity and to 

understanding of the projected impact 

of proposed trade policies on 

communities of color and underserved 

communities. 

• Ensuring that the TACA is balanced 

in terms of points of view, 

demographics, geography, and entity or 

organization size.
