Finland: New global development agenda should shake the structures of impoverishment
Published on Thu, 2013-02-14 21:22
The Finnish government wants to be an accountable member of the international community, but its political will to be so does not always transpire. Finland has not, for example, been able to reach the 0.7 % target for its development funding. On the other hand Finland's current Development Policy Programme is positively founded on a rights-based approach. The challenge for Finnish civil society is to compel the government to improve its international performance. Source: Finland Social Watch Report 2013 |
