Belgium strives for a world without poverty, in peace and security, and strives for development opportunities for every individual. In this way, we join the efforts of the international community to achieve sustainable development and a just world.
Belgium provides bilateral aid (= direct support from country to country) to partner countries in Sub-Saharan Africa, North Africa and the Middle East. The focus of our cooperation is always in Central Africa.
In bilateral cooperation, Belgium concentrates its support on a well-defined number of sectors:
- Health care
- Education and training
- Agriculture and food security
- Basic infrastructure
- Society building
