Supporting fair trade and organic farming for sustainable development

Slovakia is an emerging actor in international development cooperation. The Slovak official development cooperation program – SlovakAid – was launched in 2003, following the country’s own transition to a prosperous and democratic society. Slovakia shares the responsibility for global development. We believe that by transferring the experience, which provided basis for Slovakia’s own development, we can positively contribute to development processes in our partner countries. Although Slovak development cooperation is relatively small in quantitative terms, we seek to increase it steadily and to support the most efficient and viable solutions to address the global development challenges. Some of our most successful initiatives included projects concerning social and economic development of rural areas, environmental protection and transfer of technologies for sustainable development. In all our initiatives, we encourage strong local ownership and engagement, capacity development and empowerment. Our goal is to support innovative solutions and to replicate the ones that have proven successful. Only in such way we can make a significant contribution to sustainable and equitable development in our partner countries and bring about positive changes in people’s lives. We believe that the experience, know-how and technologies we transfer to our partner countries can help pave their way to future success.
