Another criterion is cooperation with other local and international organisations and interest groups and alignment of activities with the policies and strategies of partner countries.
Co-Funded projects aim at poverty reduction, good governance, human security and the preservation of a liveable environment according to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the Three Year Programme on Austrian Development Policy. Thematic foci are rural development, food security, water supply and sanitation, education, human rights and peacebuilding, disaster preparedness, environment and climate change as well as migration and development. Projects must be in accordance with national and local strategies of the respective partner country.
2) Eligibility
