Neighbourhood, Development and International Cooperation Instrument – Global Europe 

NDICI, or Neighbourhood, Development and International Cooperation Instrument – Global Europe, is the European Union's main financial instrument for external cooperation. It's essentially a giant pot of money the EU uses to support various projects and initiatives around the world.New Paragraph

(NDICI – Global Europe)


The NDICI is the European Union’s main financing instrument for external cooperation. It brings together five instruments from the previous programme period. The instrument aims at eradicating poverty and promoting sustainable development, prosperity, peace and stability outside the European Union. Its general objective is the affirmation and promotion of the Union’s values and interests in the world with a view to pursuing the objectives and applying the principles of the Union’s external action

Eradicate poverty and promote sustainable development

This is the big picture goal, aiming to improve the lives of people in developing countries and contribute to a healthier planet.

Support democracy, human rights, and the rule of law

 NDICI projects often focus on strengthening democratic institutions, promoting human rights, and ensuring fair and just societies.

Address global challenges

The EU faces various global challenges like climate change, migration, and security threats. NDICI helps tackle these issues through various projects and partnerships.

AN INSTRUMENT READY TO TACKLE CURRENT GEOPOLITICAL CHALLENGES

 In 2022, the Russian war of aggression against Ukraine ushered the world into a new geopolitical paradigm of instability. The consequences of the war are numerous, with food insecurity and rising energy prices, social unrests, heavy budget imbalances, disinformation, standing out among others. NDICI-Global Europe is currently being mobilised to its full potential to address the situation both in Ukraine and in other partner countries.

In the Eastern Neighbourhood

Having one instrument allowed the EU to address the evolving needs related to the war of aggression against Ukraine, whether by providing immediate assistance to internally displaced persons and refugees, or by working on sustainable food systems and supporting local civil society organisations. The 2021-2024 Global Europe bilateral allocations in the East were set up at the level of EUR 1.5 billion. Moreover, additional funds (EUR 501m) were mobilized in 2022 from the “Global Europe” emerging challenges and priorities cushion to respond to the consequences of the war in Ukraine.

In the Southern Neighbourhood

 Many countries are heavily hit by rising food prices. As such, part of the 2021-2022 Global Europe funds were mobilized via the set-up of a Food and Resilience Facility of EUR 225 million to help mitigate the effects of the crisis. Support from the Facility comes as a top-up of the current bilateral allocations, which amounts to around EUR 3.8 billion, between 2021-2024. In total, nearly EUR 1 billion in EU grant support to sectors related to food security and social protection/social safety nets is foreseen in the Southern Neighbourhood until 2024.



In Sub-Saharan Africa

The looming food security crisis required a strong EU response via the mobilization of Global Europe. Jointly with EU Member States, the EU pledged EUR 1 billion on food security in the Sahel and Lake Chad regions and over EUR 600 million for the Horn of Africa, with EU contributions from Global Europe and additional humanitarian budget.
