Information

The German government has not publicly identified the political, social and economic processes it wants to support in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA), or the role of aid – along with other policy instruments – in pursuing these goals. A German whole-of-government strategy based on the 2030 Agenda and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) would help to Balance Germany’s interests with the MENA region’s development priorities.
