Finland’s development programs in coming years will focus on promoting human rights and helping partner recipient countries become more self-sufficient.

This is in line with the new Finnish Development Policy Action Plan that the European donor adopted Feb. 16. The policy confirms Finland’s push for a more human rights-based approach to development cooperation, as shared by Minister for International Development Heidi Hautala in a recent conversation with Devex.
