| ## Our organisational structure | |
| LuxDev is structured to ensure the efficient implementation of the projects and programmes entrusted to it. | |
| Our headquarters are in Luxembourg, and to stay close to local realities, we maintain offices in the countries and regions where we operate. These local offices are vital for representing the agency, guiding operations, and supervising on-the-ground activities. This decentralized structure allows us to stay flexible and responsive, ensuring that our work has maximum impact. | |
| We also strengthen collaboration between headquarters, field offices, and national partners through regular consultation mechanisms. This approach supports coherent, efficient, and well-coordinated implementation, in line with the expectations of our donors and partner governments. |
