Welcome to the United Nations
On 19 December 2024, the UN General Assembly has adopted resolution A/79/L.49, Graduation of Cambodia and Senegal from the least developed country category. The two countries will graduate from the LDC category on 19 December 2029 after being granted, on an exceptional basis, an extended preparatory period of five years (the standard period is of three years) to enable them to effectively prepare for graduation and ensure a smooth transition out of the category.
