What makes luxembourg stand out?
DYNAMIC
Throughout its history, Luxembourg has constantly reinvented itself. From an agricultural country, it became an industrial power, then a services society. Today, it is committed to future sectors such as research, digital technologies and the space sector. It shows the same dynamism in culture, creative industries, solidarity economy initiatives as well as in the circular economy.
RELIABLE
Luxembourg is a player you can count on: an economically and politically stable country, a serene environment, a great place to live. This is reflected in the quality of public infrastructure, the health and social security system and the environmental heritage. This stability is reflected in the mentality of its citizens. They take care of their traditions, cultivate consensus and favor solutions that are sustainable.
OPEN
Openness to the outside world is a key element of the Luxembourg society model. Luxembourg has always been committed to a united and open Europe, characterised by tolerance and solidarity. Development cooperation is one of the pillars of its foreign policy. As a cosmopolitan crossroads in the center of Europe, Luxembourg is an international meeting place, a real melting pot of nationalities, cultures and languages.
