Over the past few years, the City has undertaken an increasing number of initiatives geared towards fostering international relations: bilateral cooperation agreements, cross-border programmes, expressions of international solidarity, inter-cultural exchanges, involvement in city networks, and programmes to enhance the attractiveness of Luxembourg City and develop its international presence.
With foreign nationals accounting for over 70% of the city's residents, and 167 different nationalities, Luxembourg City is decidedly a multicultural capital – a "multiplicity" city.
