Luxembourg Although the 20th largest DAC donor of humanitarian aid by volume in 2007, with total humanitarian expenditure of US$46 million (or 0.5% of the collective DAC total), Luxembourg was the most generous on a per citizen basis and as a share of its GNI. Total humanitarian assistance expenditure fell by 7.1% between 2006 and 2007, but preliminary DAC data suggests that bilateral contributions alone could rise to US$39 million in 2008.

Although both relate to ‘humanitarian’ expenditure, FTS and DAC data are not comparable. Reporting requirements and definitions are different. Some, all or none of a DAC donor’s official humanitarian expenditure might be included in the FTS figures. In some instances, more might be reported in humanitarian assistance through the FTS than is included in OECD DAC data
