The Global Europe: Neighbourhood, Development and International Cooperation Instrument is the main financial tool of the EU's international cooperation for the period of 2021-2027.
The European Fund for Sustainable Development Plus (EFSD+) is one of the financing tools of Global Gateway, promoting sustainable investments in the European Union’s partner countries.
Through direct financial transfers to their national treasury – also known as budget support, we support partner countries engaging in sustainable development reforms.
Trust funds are set-up to pool funding from different sources. The EU can set-up multi-donor trust funds for emergency, post-emergency or thematic actions in the field of external action.
