EDC2020: The European Development Co-operation to 2020

The EDC project is funded by the 7th Framework Project of the European Commission and investigating key emerging issues regarding the European development co-operation. The EDC 2020 project combines both research and communication aspects. Its aim is to encourage close collaboration between researchers, policy and decision makers and therefore does not only co-operate with reputable European Development Research Institutes such as IDS, ODI, DIE and FRIDE but also with SID as a dissemination partner in order to reach practitioners directly through various policy briefings and workshops. The project is coordinated by EADI.  For more information please visit www.edc2020.eu .
