  • Organisation of awareness-raising and capacity-building activities for CSOs, and multi-stakeholder consultations in the LDCs aiming to assess the implementation of the IPoA and other IADGs in national development contexts and processes.
  • Organisation of regional and global multi-stakeholder consultations aiming to develop enhanced LDC-oriented global development processes, specifically the BPoA, by promoting a pro-poor development agenda in favour of the vulnerable and marginalised in the LDCs.
  • Organisation of parliamentary hearings on the issues and concerns of the LDCs both with national governments as well as development partner governments.
