Sweden’s and Sida’s Partnership with the EU

The EU Member States and the EU institutions contribute to more than half of the world’s development assistance and are collectively the largest provider of Official Development Assistance (ODA) funds in the world. Under the EU’s current budgetary framework 2014–2020, the EU Commission will distribute a total aid budget of approximately EUR 96.5 billion to thematic and geographic programmes, including humanitarian aid. Efforts are made to help partner countries respond to the COVID-19 pandemic under a Team Europe approach.
