LODEWIJK BRIET
EUROPEAN UNION AMBASSADOR


The European Union (EU) is the largest donor of funds to South Africa. Our R1 billion Annual Development Co-operation Budget spans areas as diverse as education, water, sanitation, and the entrenchment of a human rights culture.

Local economic development is one of our priority areas for supporting job creation in South Africa. Given the large levels of unemployment which persist in South Africa today, local economic development takes on even more importance as a model for addressing this challenge.

The EU Programme supporting Local Economic Development in Limpopo has been based on the EU model for supporting job creation and development in the poorer regions of Europe. This model has had much success in contributing to growth and employment in the poorer countries of Europe.
The initial results from these grant funds give us hope that this model can also have similar success in Limpopo.
