On 5-9 March 2023, the UN will host the 5th United Nations Conference on the Least Developed Countries (LDC5) in Doha, Qatar.
LDC5 is a once-in-a-decade opportunity to accelerate sustainable development in the places where international assistance is needed the most, and to tap the full potential of Least Developed Countries helping them make progress on the road to prosperity.
During the conference, world leaders will gather with the private sector, civil society, parliamentarians and young people to advance new ideas, raise new pledges of support, and spur delivery on agreed commitments, through the Doha Programme of Action. It is expected that specific initiatives and concrete deliverables will be announced that will address LDC-specific challenges.
