Africa regional preparatory meeting on the review of the implementation of the Brussels programme of action

Abstract

The period covered by the Brussels Programme of Action for the Least Developed Countries (LDCs) for the Decade 2001-2010 (BPoA) is coming to a close. In this context the General Assembly decided in resolution 63/227 to convene the Fourth United Nations Conference on the Least Developed Countries. As part of the preparations for the Fourth Conference, the United Nations Office of the High Representative for the Least Developed Countries, Landlocked Developing Countries and Small Island Developing States, together with ECA, is convening an African regional preparatory meeting to review the implementation of the BPoA by African LDCs and their development partners.
