G7 Countries Not Fulfilling their Own Commitments to Least Developed Countries
Next week, a once-in-a-decade UN conference will meet to address the challenges facing Least Developed Countries (LDCs). It will plan delivery of the Doha Programme of Action (PoA), and review implementation of the Istanbul PoA. As part of this, attention should be given to a set of lesser-known UN aid targets for LDCs, agreed at previous conferences, where donor countries committed to provide over either 0.15 or 0.2 percent of their economic output.
