The Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency, Sida, is a government agency working on behalf of the Swedish parliament and government, with the mission to reduce poverty in the world.
It contributes towards implementing Sweden’s Policy for Global Development through its work and cooperation.
The overall objective of Swedish development cooperation is to ensure that people living in poverty and under oppression have the ability to improve their living conditions.
To carry out this mission in an effective and strategic way, Sida works broadly across several sectors.
Another part of SIDA’s mission is conducting reform cooperation with Eastern Europe, which is financed through a specific appropriation.
