Climate change vulnerability and the identification of least developed countries, by Matthias Bruckner (CDP Background Paper No. 15)

This paper reviews the role of climate change vulnerability in identifying least developed countries (LDCs). Taking a sustainable development perspective, it argues that climate change should be seen as an aggravating factor of existing handicaps and many indicators used to identify LDCs already capture relevant structural vulnerabilities to climate change. However, the paper proposes some refinements in the LDC criteria to better capture vulnerabilities from natural disasters and in coastal areas. These refinements affected the vulnerability ranking in the recent triennial review, but had no impact the eligibility of countries for inclusion in and graduation from the LDC category.

The United Nations Development Strategy Beyond 2015 (CDP Policy Note 2012)

In the present Policy Note, the Committee for Development Policy proposes principles and policy alternatives for a post-2015 development agenda, in the light of consideration of lessons learnt from the Millennium Development Goals experience and the key development challenges that have emerged in recent years. It suggests a general contour of a transformative framework with a broader, more nuanced and context-specific development strategies which are required to make the vision expressed in the Millennium Declaration to be fully realized. The Note will contribute to efforts by the international community to find the effective solutions to move the international development agenda forward.
