Due to their geographic isolation and small size of their economies, small island developing States are often unable to integrate into regional and global value chains and production networks and thus fully participate in the global economy. Consequently, the solution to their developmental challenges and in some cases persistent poverty may lie in structural transformation, targeting niche products and high-end and environmentally sustainable tourism services (ESCAP, 2019a).
