The development cooperation fund in 2021

The state bud­get pro­vid­ed the DCF with EUR281.77 mil­lion in 2021; added to which are the assets avail­able on 1 Jan­u­ary, i.e EUR34.98 mil­lion, as well as rev­enue dur­ing the year (EUR724769.40). Rev­enue includes repay­ments by NGOs and agen­cies of undis­bursed funds from projects co-fund­ed by the Min­istry. EUR6.04 mil­lion was also rout­ed through the DCF between Denmark’s devel­op­ment coop­er­a­tion and LuxDev as del­e­gat­ed cooperation.

In 2021, a total of EUR305.75 mil­lion was dis­bursed through the DCF. LuxDev, as the state’s prin­ci­pal agent respon­si­ble for the imple­men­ta­tion of projects and pro­grammes falling under the head­ing of gov­ern­men­tal bilat­er­al coop­er­a­tion, ben­e­fit­ed from the major­i­ty of this amount, i.e. EUR117 mil­lion (38.27%). Human­i­tar­i­an aid was cred­it­ed with EUR69.54 mil­lion (22.75%). Next come mul­ti­lat­er­al organ­i­sa­tions and agen­cies (14.90%) and non-gov­ern­men­tal devel­op­ment organ­i­sa­tions, which received EUR40.54 mil­lion (13.26%) as part of the co-financ­ing of their projects and pro­grammes and to cov­er some of their admin­is­tra­tive costs. The bal­ance was account­ed for by projects imple­ment­ed by the Min­istry direct­ly with oth­er part­ners (9.77%) and pro­gramme sup­port (1.05%).
