Not exactly the canonical way, but I have the following in documents I'm
planning to export to LaTeX to make whitespace bearable:

#+LATEX_HEADER:=20
#+LATEX_HEADER: \let\olditemize=3D\itemize
#+LATEX_HEADER: \def\itemize{
#+LATEX_HEADER: \olditemize
#+LATEX_HEADER: \setlength{\itemsep}{-0.8ex}
#+LATEX_HEADER: }
#+LATEX_HEADER: \let\oldenumerate=3D\enumerate
#+LATEX_HEADER: \def\enumerate{
#+LATEX_HEADER: \oldenumerate
#+LATEX_HEADER: \setlength{\itemsep}{-0.8ex}
#+LATEX_HEADER: }
