The Ministry of Foreign Affairs is now ready to launch the 2017 call for proposals for Danida Market Development Partnerships.
Danida Market Development Partnerships contributes to sustainable
market development that promotes the achievement of the Sustainable
Development Goals. Focusing on SDG 8 the main objective is to promote
sustainable local economic growth and employment in developing
countries. The Partnerships programme features an innovative approach to
involvement of the business sector and contributes to motivating and
mobilizing investments from the private sector.
The
point of departure for a partnership project is a business idea driven
by one or more private businesses. The business idea must support the
development objective. Danida support is provided to combine knowledge
and resources from different actors with the aim to ensure wider
development results. The programme thus promotes broad partnerships
federating businesses, civil society organizations, knowledge
institutions, business organizations and other non-commercial partners.
