Summary: Joint Communication adopted on 1 December 2021 by the European Commission and the EU's High Representative for Foreign and Security Policy, setting out the so-called Global Gateway strategy. Further information: This Strategy aims to boost smart, clean and secure links in digital, energy and transport and strengthen health, education and research systems across the world. It comprises the mobilisation of up to €300 billion in investments between 2021 and 2027 to underpin a lasting global recovery, taking into account interests from the European Union (EU) and its partners.

It draws on the financial instruments adopted under the Multiannual Financial Framework 2021-2027. The projects are meant to be developed and delivered through Team European Initiatives. The Strategy was first announced by the President of the European Commission during the annual State of the European Union (SOTEU) address, and formally launched on 1 December 2021.
