The global programmes of action were instituted to address the unique development challenges and vulnerabilities of the least developed countries, landlocked developing countries and small island developing States. The Istanbul Programme of Action aims to overcome the structural challenges of least developed countries through building their human and productive capacities, enabling graduation from the least developed country category. The Vienna Programme of Action for landlocked developing countries targets the enhancement of competitiveness, expansion of trade and diversification through strengthening partnerships between landlocked and transit countries. The Samoa Pathway calls for international cooperation to support the small island developing States in overcoming their particular vulnerabilities and the compound effects of climate change.
