Global Gateway
Global Gateway is the European Union’s contribution to narrowing the global investment gap worldwide. Launched in 2021, it seeks to create transformational impact in the digital, climate and energy, education and research, health, and transport sectors across the world. The initiative aims to mobilize up to €300 billion in investments using a Team Europe approach, which brings together the EU, its Member States and their financial and development institutions.
Global Gateway focuses on accelerating sustainable development through smart investments which consider the needs of partner countries, ensure lasting benefits for local communities, and respect the highest social and environmental standards in line with the EU’s interests and values: rule of law, human rights and international norms and standards.
