CDP Member Taffere Tesfachew discusses the history of the LDC category, support by the 缅北禁地system to the category, and the prospects and challenges for LDCs, including issues related to graduation, in the context of the crisis induced by COVID-19 and climate change:
On 16 July 2021, Jose Antonio Ocampo , Chair of the Committee for Development Policy (CDP) introduced the Committee's report to the High-Level Segment of ECOSOC. He stressed the importance of universal vaccination, increased financial support and debt relief to developing countries, structural transformation and a new, supportive, multilateralism to secure a sustainable, equitable and resilient recovery from COVID-19.
Why is productive capacity central to the sustainable development of least developed countries (LDCs)? How can LDCs, with support from development partners, expand their productive capacity through domestic policies including efforts to build back better from COVID-19? How can the Fifth United Nations Conference on the LDCs (LDC5) contribute to these efforts through the new Programme of Action?
