Strategy for Culture and Development
Environment and climate
The aim of Denmark’s development cooperation is to reduce poverty through the promotion of human rights and economic growth. It is focused on some of the poorest countries in the world.
Danish development assistance programmes achieved their goals in 84 per cent of cases in 2011. Every goal that is achieved is a small step on the way to creating development in some of the poorest countries of the world.
The developing countries need an enabling environment for the private sector to create economic growth, one of the preconditions for effective poverty alleviation.
Since 1987 Danida has published all evaluations with a view to informing the general public and political decision-makers about the results and processes of Danish development cooperation.
Danida issues a number of publications every year: annual reports, books, films, teaching material, newsletters and booklets.
