The challenges for EU development co-operation policy posed by the results of the 1992 Earth Summit are addressed. The EU is now the fifth largest donor agency in the OECD. It committed approximately ECU 5.1 billion to developing countries in 1993, which represents about 15% of the total flow of aid from the EU and its Member States combined. Of this, almost ECU 2 billion were channelled through the Lomé Convention, mutually agreed between the EU and 70 African, Caribbean and Pacific (ACP) states. The Lomé framework is supplemented by bilateral agreements with Asian and Latin American countries, financed from the EU budget, as well as cross-cutting funds for emergency aid, environment, forests, research and development, non-governmental organizations and democracy. This paper focuses on the Lomé Convention, the centrepiece of the EU's development programme. It describes the evolution of environmental integration in Lomé and reviews five key challenges facing EU development co-operation in the run-up to the year 2000.
