| Abstract | The World Trade Organization, (WTO), non-reimbursable cooperation program aims to provide Aid for Trade to least-developed countries (LDCs). These countries are characterized by having low Human Development Index, (HDI), along with major problems in core strategic areas such infrastructure, procedures, institutions and supportive trade policies. The cooperation program objective is to develop trade capacity to enhance LDCs international competitiveness. This research study aims to support the development of LDCs trading capacity as well as to promote their international competitiveness. The study aims to establish the relationship between Aid for Trade and its effect on the international competitiveness of the 36 least developed WTO member countries. To draw this relationship, an international competitiveness index was developed. It consisted of variables such as domestic competitiveness, human development, exportation performance and trade openness. The article concluded that there is a weakened relationship between Aid for Trade and its effect on LDCs international competitiveness, which could improve if the LDCs invest in electricity provisions together with port and airport infrastructure. |
