The overall goal of Swedish development cooperation is to contribute to making it possible for poor people to improve their living conditions. By reducing injustices and poverty throughout the world, better opportunities are created for development, peace and security for all people and nations. In an increasingly globalised world we are all dependent on, and affected by, each other.

For several years, Sweden and Sida have been very much involved in the creation and development of both the UN Millennium Development Goals and the Paris Declaration. Historic decisions to promote favourable trends in this area have also been made in Sweden. In December 2003, the Swedish Parliament adopted the Government Bill, Our common responsibility - Sweden's Policy for Global Development (PGU), thus forming the basis for a unified policy to contribute to equitable and sustainable global development. This goal is not limited to Swedish development assistance, but applies to all policy areas.

On behalf of people in developing countries, taking the opportunity to make a step forward, we would like to thank Sida for their continued support.
