Europe

Europe is a key player in global development, providing more than half of the world's development aid. With a rich history of leveraging its resources, innovations, and expertise, Europe has been instrumental in saving lives and reducing poverty. The continent's robust civil society also plays a crucial role in advancing these efforts.
