The Doha Programme of Action (DPOA) identifies five key deliverables that will assist the Least Developed Countries (LDCs) in removing structural impediments to inclusive growth and sustainable development. They aim to close pervasive gaps in education, food security, investment for sustainable development and resilience to climate change and facilitate smooth graduation and transition out of the LDC category.

ONLINE UNIVERSITY

To increase the provision of high-quality education, particularly in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) fields, and the diverse range of digital skills that LDCs need to cope with the demands of the 4th Industrial Revolution. The Online University can allow people in the LDCs to access educational opportunities that may not be available to them otherwise.

FOOD STOCKHOLDING MECHANISM

To enhance LDCs’ capacity to address food security by providing a buffer against food shortages and price volatility, thereby helping to increase food security in LDCs.

SUSTAINABLE GRADUATION SUPPORT FACILITY (IGRAD)

To ensure a smooth transition from the LDC category by assisting graduating countries to prepare for graduation and post-graduation sustainable development.

INVESTMENT SUPPORT CENTRE

To increase Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) flows towards LDCs, improving financing for sustainable development and bolstering the transformative potential of the private sector.

RESILIENCE BUILDING MECHANISM

To increase LDCs’ resilience to climate change through adaptation, early warning system improvement, and multi-stakeholder resilience-building measures. Such measures will support the ability of individuals, communities, and systems to withstand and recover from adverse shocks; build long-term resilience; and safeguard hard-won development gains.
