MAE/020
Luxembourg's interventions in the fight against Covid-19

In the context of the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic which is raging in all the partner countries of the Luxembourg Cooperation, the Luxembourg Government wished to provide its support, through LuxDev, to the partner governments to fight against the effects of the pandemic.

The MAEE thus mandated LuxDev for a period of two years. While the Agency contributed to the selection of projects, its role and responsibility is essentially to ensure the management and administrative and financial monitoring/reporting of the programmes benefiting from these actions.

The actions are described in action sheets and implemented mainly through agreements with United Nations organisations and European partners well positioned in the health sector, but also thanks to Luxembourg programmes that can intervene effectively and directly with the beneficiaries, as is the case in Senegal, Laos and Mongolia.
