Policy Context


In 2021, Luxembourg launched its revised ICF strategy which includes a commitment of EUR200 million (US$211 million) for the period of 2021-2025, an increase from the EUR152 million (US$160 million) it spent in 2014-2020. This financing is new and additional to ODA, and is managed by the Climate and Energy Fund under the Ministry of Environment, Climate, and Sustainable Development.


Luxembourg’s ICF focuses on the following thematic areas:

  • Natural capital, biodiversity, and land-use;
  • Clean air and water resources;
  • Resource efficiency and waste management;
  • Community-based adaptation and resilience;
  • Support for the transparency requirements of the Paris Agreement;
  • Leveraging and mainstreaming climate and sustainable finance; and
  • Climate-change-induced migration.

According to the revised ICF strategy, Luxembourg no longer applies strict quotas on funding to mitigation, adaptation, and REDD+, but rather focuses on complementary activities that address these issues. Luxembourg continues to focus on LICS and SIDS as well as its Climate Dialogue Partners, many of which are also its ODA priority partners.


The strategy states that Luxembourg will continue to provide grant financing, particularly for adaptation projects, while other climate investments, such as those involving the private sector, may be funded by concessional loans, first-loss equity and guarantees, and outcome-based payments.
