Arrival of Heads of Delegations for the Third United Nations Conference on Landlocked Developing Countries (LLDC3).


Heads of delegations are arriving in Awaza, Turkmenistan, for the opening of the Third United Nations Conference on Landlocked Developing Countries (LLDC3).

Landlocked Developing Countries (LLDCs), lacking direct sea access, face hurdles in trade, connectivity, and development. Without coastal ports, they rely on transit nations, causing higher trade costs and delays. Despite challenges, LLDCs host vibrant communities with untapped potential.

The Third UN Conference on LLDCs offers a chance to explore solutions and forge partnerships, addressing challenges and unlocking their full potential for a more equitable and prosperous future.
