| Stated Role |
Danish development assistance takes the most urgent problems in the developing countries as its starting point, and at the same time it reflects the values underlying Denmark’s international behaviour. |
| Activities |
In August 2007 the Danish government presented Denmark’s new Strategy for Africa for the period 2007-2011. The strategy is a result of a thorough analysis and an in-depth public debate of Danish development priorities in Africa. <P><P>More development assistance is allocated towards Africa and attention is given to key challenges of development in Africa: Youth, employment, Climate changes and gender discrimination. The Danish government wishes to see African countries participate in globalisation as an equal economic partner and hopes to strengthen the Danish engagement in Africa. Furthermore regional cooperation should be strengthened to facilitate trade and establish security. <P> |
