Through its EuropeAid Development and Cooperation Directorate-General (DG EuropeAid), the European Commission has organised the Lorenzo Natali Prize as part of its efforts to promote development, human rights and democracy and help lift developing countries out of poverty.
DG EuropeAid is responsible for designing EU development policies and delivering aid through programmes and projects across the world.
