Lithuania, after becoming a member of the European Union in 2004, became a part of the international community of donors – from a country receiving aid to a donor country.
Development cooperation policy is an integral part of the foreign policy of Lithuania and other developed states. Its objectives are the following: ensuring peace, global economic growth and social stability, reduction of the disparities between developed and developing countries, integration of developing countries into the global economy and implementation of the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals approved by the United Nations.
In order to ensure the proper implementation of Republic of Lithuania Law on Development Cooperation and Humanitarian Aid, the strategic directions for Development Cooperation 2022-2025 were approved.
