Aligning climate and trade policy for LDCs and graduates

Graduation from ¡°Less Developed Country¡± status marks huge economic and social progress, but risks can arise after the loss of international support measures. To deliver the SDGs and halve greenhouse gas emissions, climate and trade policy need to align in a way that works for the poorest.

The LDC Group and the Alliance of Small Island States formed an influential and ambitious bloc in the Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ climate negotiations. However, LDC trade and climate policy communities need to engage in a structured way to support transitional measures.
