Fit for Purpose: presenting the SDC's new structure

The Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC) is aligning itself with the fields of action of modern international cooperation and is adopting a new structure as of 1 September 2022. The SDC is now divided into three geographical divisions, one thematic division and one multilateral division.

The example of Afghanistan underlines how important it is for humanitarian aid and long-term development cooperation to complement each other. With its new structure, the SDC is bringing these two areas closer together to be even more effective on the ground. — © Keystone

Our goal is to ensure that we are fit as a development organisation to work efficiently, quickly, effectively and flexibly in partner countries together with our partners.

Switzerland is perceived internationally as a country that keeps its promises, is a reliable partner and is committed to the long term.
