Accountability report on international cooperation 2021 - 2024
Every four years, the Federal Council presents the international cooperation (IC) strategy to Parliament. With the 2021-24 strategy period drawing to a close, it is time to take stock and learn lessons for the coming period. The offices involved - the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC), the State Secretariat for Economic Affairs (SECO) and the Peace and Human Rights Division (PHRD) - do this in the accountability report.
Swiss IC had set itself four objectives: 1. Economic development; 2. Environment; 3. Human development; 4. Peacebuilding and governance. By consistently pursuing these goals, it helped to improve the lives of millions of people.
Multiple crises affected the strategy's implementation, including the COVID-19 pandemic and the war in Ukraine. Agility was therefore at a premium. Urgently needed assistance had to be provided without losing sight of the long-term goals.
A combination of humanitarian aid, development cooperation and peacebuilding was necessary, not only to manage the crises but also to support positive long-term changes.
