I. Luxembourg’s official development assistance in 2015

ODA in 2015 by Ministry

In 2014, the Ministry of Foreign and European Affairs managed and implemented 83,76% of official development assistance, i.e. 272,15 million euros (of which 264,98 million euros was managed by the Directorate for Development Cooperation and Humanitarian Action).

The remaining 16,24% came from contributions made by the Ministry of Finance (9,91%), several other ministries (1,46%) and the share of Luxembourg’s contribution to the EU’s general budget – apart from the European Development Fund (EDF) – allocated by the European Commission for the purposes of development cooperation in 2015 (15,85 million euros, i.e. 4,88% of Luxembourg’s ODA).

We should note in this respect that Luxembourg’s assistance via all the EU’s bodies, including Luxembourg’s contribution to the EDF, amounted to almost 32,07 million euros.

The table below gives a detailed view of expenditure by budget item and by ministry in 2015 notified as ODA to the OECD’s Development Aid Committee (DAC).
