The Swedish Ministry for Foreign Affairs, together with Sweden’s missions abroad, is responsible for Sweden’s foreign, development cooperation and trade policy. Its work spans democracy and human rights, foreign and security policy, international law, Nordic affairs, and trade and promotion of Sweden. Sweden’s international development assistance aims to improve the lives of people living in poverty and oppression, while supporting Sweden’s foreign policy interests and priorities.
The Ministry directs official development assistance and humanitarian aid, including contributions to multilateral organisations, UN funds and international crisis response. Funding is provided through government decisions and framework agreements rather than a public catalogue of open calls. Most bilateral development grants are administered by the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (Sida) under the Ministry’s policy direction. This listing concerns that general framework rather than a specific research funding opportunity.
