Workshop on Mainstreaming and Monitoring the Implementation of the Doha Programme of Action for the LDCs (DPoA)

Wednesday, 24 July 2024 - 9:00am to Friday, 26 July 2024 - 5:00pm

The Doha Programme of Action for the LDCs (DPoA) sets forth ambitious targets and goals to achieve sustainable, resilient and transformative development for the decade 2022-2031. Effective follow-up and robust monitoring are crucial for the successful implementation of the DPoA. At the meeting of the LDCs National Focal Points (LDCs NFPs) held last year, participants underscored the critical need for capacity building and exchange of best practices to effectively integrate the DPoA into national development agendas and ensure rigorous monitoring of its implementation.

In close consultation with the LDCs including the NFPs, the Office of the UN Resident Coordinators in the LDCs and the UN Inter-agency Consultative Group on the LDCs, OHRLLS has developed the Guidelines for Mainstreaming and Monitoring the Implementation of the DPoA. These guidelines offer practical, step-by-step directives and tools to assist governments and other national players in the LDCs in incorporating the DPoA into the national development plans and establishing robust monitoring mechanisms. The guidelines also serve as a useful reference for the UN Country Teams in the LDCs to provide enhanced support in this regard.

This year¡¯s meeting of the LDCs NFPs aims to launch the Guidelines and provide orientation of tools designed for mainstreaming and monitoring of the implementation of the DPoA. Participants will engage in extensive discussions on the application of these guidelines within respective national contexts. The workshop is part of the efforts of OHRLLS to bolster the capacity of the LDCs in the effective implementation of the DPoA. The workshop will draw participation from policymakers responsible for national development and planning in the LDCs, LDCs National Focal Points, representatives of the UN Resident Coordinators in the LDCs and representatives from the Government of T¨¹rkiye.

The workshop is organized with the generous support and contribution of the Government of T¨¹rkiye.
