A common agenda

In its cooperation with the EU, Denmark will focus on those areas where Denmark can act as an agent of change, where there are comparative advantages in working through the EU, and where there are clear common interests. Denmark will use approaches that promote Danish influence and strengthen the interaction between Danish and EU development cooperation.

Denmark will focus on the following three strategic priority areas.

1. The EU as a global force for human rights
2. The EU as a stable partner in fragile states
3. The EU as a driver of green sustainable growth and employment
