On March 3, 2025, the Starling Institute convened 34 participants from 12 Least Developed Countries for a private meeting  to explore strategies for LDCs to secure a successful outcome at FfD4. Given the Sustainable Development Goals will not be achieved if significant progress is not made in LDCs, this event focused on enabling LDC diplomats to more effectively engage in FfD negotiations to advance the needs of LDCs.
