The second chapter classifies the WTO pillars in providing economic cooperation for developing countries. This section also describes the special provisions of WTO giving developing and least developed countries exclusive unilateral rights. The third chapter distresses the implementation of the WTO trade development instruments in Francophone Africa. This section will acknowledge the significance of the The Bali Package and November 2014 decisions.
