In Liechtenstein solidarity with disadvantaged people has a long tradition and shaped the self-image of our country for generations. As a result, solidarity with people who live in disadvantaged regions of the world and are dependent on support is at the core of Liechtenstein's foreign policy.

Liechtenstein’s international solidarity encompasses both short-term emergency and reconstruction assistance as well as longer-term development assistance. International Humanitarian Cooperation and Development (IHCD) is the country’s main instrument of international solidarity.
