Development Sweden #50. Sweden stops support to UNRWA


In late December, the Swedish Government presented its appropriation letter (budget instructions, in other words) for the Swedish Development Cooperation Agency Sida and other governmental agencies.

The major news was that Sweden would end all support to the UN agency for Palestine, UNRWA. Besides that, there are large cuts in support to the UN emergency support CERF and to other UN agencies.

Development Sweden is providing you with exclusive insight about everything that happens in Swedish aid politics.
