The European Commission has adopted the mid-term review of the NDICI-Global Europe instrument programming, to have a tool more aligned with the new priorities emerging both at the European level and in partner countries.
As explained by the Commissioner for International Partnerships Jutta Urpilainen, “seven years is a long period in today's volatile global context. The needs and challenges of our partner countries evolve, and it is important that we can adapt our programs accordingly. This mid-term review will ensure that the components of NDICI-Global Europe are fit for purpose. The review has taken stock of the progress made and allocations have been adjusted to ensure that the EU can continue to provide aid in a context of increasing global competition and ensure support to fragile partner countries. We remain committed to leaving no one behind.”
