The Third United Nations Conference on Landlocked Developing Countries concluded in Awaza with the adoption of the Awaza Programme of Action, a decade-long blueprint to improve connectivity, boost investment, and strengthen resilience for 32 nations without sea access.
Leaders and policymakers stressed that geography should not determine economic fate, highlighting trade corridors, South–South cooperation and youth participation as drivers of transformation.
The plan’s success, delegates agreed, will depend on translating consensus into concrete measures that deliver growth and opportunity far beyond Turkmenistan’s shores.
