Danida
Danish International Development Assistance (DANIDA) is the term used for Denmark’s development cooperation, which is an area of activity under the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Denmark. Through DANIDA Denmark aims to fight poverty by promoting human rights and supporting economic growth in developing countries around the world.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Denmark is responsible for the planning, implementation and quality assurance of Denmark’s development projects and programmes. While central coordination takes place in Copenhagen, local and posted staff at Danish embassies and missions abroad are responsible for the administration and management of Denmark’s development cooperation in specific countries.
In 2016 the majority of Denmark's development projects and programmes in Pakistan were phased out. Today only minor development projects are managed by the Embassy of Denmark in Pakistan focusing on health, innovation, climate change and environmental challenges.
