| Stated Role | To influence policy-making on development in Switzerland, and inform people about the causes of poverty and underdevelopment. |
| Activities | SWISSAID is involved in development policy making and implementation in Switzerland and southern hemisphere countries. We are convinced that the living conditions of the world's poorest people will not be improved by projects alone, but also through economic and political dialogue. Therefore, we also strive to achieve equality for women and men and self-determination for farmers around the world, and to ensure that revenue from oil production benefits the poor.<P> |
