Aim — Austrian Development Cooperation (ADC) contributes to narrowing the rift between rich and poor, ensuring peace and preserving natural habitats. All progress depends on an adequate supply of water and energy. Education opens up new prospects for the future and building democratic institutions brings stability. All ADC programmes and projects take special account of gender equality and the needs of children and persons with disabilities.

  • NGO cooperation international finances projects and programmes of Austrian non-governmental organisations (NGOs) aiming at improving the conditions of life and development prospects of people in partner countries.
