Now available: 2025 development co-operation peer review of Luxembourg Luxembourg is one of the few Development Assistance Committee (DAC) countries that has committed 1% of GNI to official development assistance (ODA), with a focus on low-income countries and the poorest communities. It has also decided to exclude climate finance, or the costs linked to hosting refugees on its soil from its ODA. This peer review provides a set of recommendations for Luxembourg to enhance the effectiveness of its policies and programmes further. For example, coordination among ministries and actors could be improved, and in turn increase the country’s strategic influence. It also needs to diversify funding sources of its development agency, Luxembourg Aid & Development, beyond government contributions, strengthen its operational efficiency, and adapt it to manage a broader portfolio of financial instruments, including EU funds. ⤵️ Link to the report and additional resources in the comments.
