TitleSmooth transition strategy for countries graduating from the list of least developed countries
Summary
Re-emphasizes the need for a smooth transition for countries graduating from the list of least developed countries; reconfirms that graduating from the list of least developed countries should not result in a disruption of development plans, programmes and projects; urges all development partners to support the implementation of the transition strategy and to avoid any abrupt reductions in either official development assistance or technical assistance provided to the graduated country; recommends that the continued implementation of technical assistance programmes under the Integrated Framework for Trade-related Technical Assistance to Least Developed Countries be considered for the graduated country over a period appropriate to the development situation of the country.
