Udviklingssamarbejdspolitikken bør ikke blot være en finansiering af projekter for at sikre den gode samvittighed, men skal være investeringer i fremtiden, for at befolkningerne og de berørte lande en dag kan blive deltagere og drivkraft i deres egen udvikling.
The development cooperation policy that we are pursuing must not boil down to simply funding projects in order to clear our consciences. It must rather be an investment for the future so that the people and the countries targeted will one day become partners and can promote their own development.
