El Salvador
Given the extraordinary economic and social progress made by El Salvador since the 1990s, it was decided that the 2012-2015 ICP would be the final development cooperation programme and that the partnership between the two countries had reached a sufficiently mature level to diversify relations beyond the framework of development assistance.
As agreed by the two governments, 2016 was marked by the development of specific support to ensure that the knowledge acquired so far is consolidated after the closure of the ICP. Luxembourg is contributing to governmental social protection programmes by supporting the social plan in the form of a contribution to the joint programme-based support fund; financial contribution to the second fund to support El Salvadorean civil society initiatives and a contribution to the El Salvador fund for South-South cooperation.
In addition, support for the financial sector provided by the House of Training will be extended until 2017 in order to ensure that all the objectives are reached.
