New Swedish aid delivery model

Sweden plans to pilot-test new aid delivery model with Indonesia as cooperation partner.
The Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency is set to phase in what it calls partner-driven cooperation in Indonesia and six other countries that fall under the category of selective cooperation following the Swedish government's decision in 2007 to overhaul its development strategy.
The Swedish government wants to achieve a more focused development policy, and the first step it took was to nearly halve the number of countries with which it will cooperate. Sida will maintain bilateral cooperation with 33 of its 67 partner countries, and pilot the new strategy in seven. It will pull out from the rest.
Among the 33 countries I find most of those I have been working in:
- Albania
- Ethiopia
- Guatemala
- Kenya
- Moldavia
- Mozambique
- Uganda
