Dear readers,

Welcome to a new issue of Development Sweden. Sweden is in summer mood, and we apologise for a slight delay. In this issue Sida’s director General Jakob Granit answers our questions (in written form but still) about his leadership and what made him change the CSO rules. The remaining organisations have now received the indicative amounts they can apply for. Sida has also made the first screening of those who did apply for small grants.

With holiday season on the way Development Sweden might take a longer break than usual, but we are here, whenever something important happens in Sweden.

Development Sweden is providing you with exclusive insight about everything that happens in Swedish aid politics. Development Sweden depends on readers like you. If you would like to read the full newsletter you are most welcome to upgrade to a paid subscription.
