Join UNCTAD at the Fifth UN Conference on Least Developed Countries (LDC5) from 5 to 9 March 2023 in Doha, Qatar

The 46 least developed countries (LDCs) comprise about 14% of the global population. They are some of the poorest and most vulnerable economies in the world.

They account for only 1.3% of global gross domestic product, receive just 1.4% of total foreign direct investment and trade under 1% of world merchandise exports.

LDCs are the battleground on which the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development will be won or lost.

At LDC5, UNCTAD calls for bold action and development cooperation to achieve inclusive growth and sustainable development in LDCs.
