Monitoring of the follow-up to the decision on…
Monitoring of the follow-up to the decision on measures concerning the possible negative effects of the reform programme on least-developed and net food-importing developing countries.
Environment related objective
To help developing countries better integrated in the global economic system through basic infrastructure in energy, water treatment and development of environmental technologies.
3 CONTEXT OF TECHNICAL AND FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE UNDER PARAGRAPH 3(iii) OF THE DECISION
The key objectives of the Swiss law on international cooperation are as follows:
· to support the efforts of developing countries to improve the standard of living of their people;
· to help to put these countries in a position to ensure their development by their own means.
The State Secretariat for Economic Affairs devises the economic and trade measures for development cooperation aimed at achieving better integration of the developing countries in the global economic system: the promotion of basic infrastructure in the energy, water treatment and land registry sectors; macroeconomic assistance, budgetary support, debt relief and management measures; trade promotion activities (aid for trade), development of environmental technologies and a commitment to international organizations in respect of commodities; and promotion of the private sector through improved access to finance and strengthening of the framework conditions necessary to boost investment. SECO focuses its bilateral activities on eight countries of the South, in particular middle-income countries. Support may also be provided for supplementary activities in the SDC's partner countries.
