The DAC's main findings and recommendations available in English | French |
||
Denmark is a top aid donor but reduced budget and refugee costs pose risks Denmark has been a generous provider of development aid, providing high-quality support to countries most in need. With an estimated 2015 aid budget of USD 2.6 billion, equating to 0.85% of its gross national income, Denmark is one of a handful of countries to regularly surpass the international commitment to provide at least 0.7% of GNI in official development assistance (ODA). However, it faces significant challenges from a reduction of its aid budget and fast-rising refugee costs, according to the latest DAC Peer Review. Read the press release English | Danish | French |

Implementation of peer review recommendations from 2011
|
Strengthened coherence between long-term development efforts and humanitarian assistance Denmark is well equipped to design a comprehensive strategy to support implementation of the World Humanitarian Summit. It has already conducted pioneering policy work examining the persistent challenges in the humanitarian-development nexus and has developed funding mechanisms that can finance either humanitarian, transition or development activities. Humanitarian and development staff share a common terminology which strengthens understanding and ownership of the search for coherence. Denmark’s new strategy for development co-operation, due for release in late 2016, is also expected to increase the integration of humanitarian and development actions.
