Bilateral and multilateral partners

SDC

The goal of a world without poverty and at peace, and of sustainable development is not only pursued by Caritas but also by the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC). It supports Caritas Switzerland each year with a large contribution to our programmes and projects. In addition, we work closely with the SDC in the context of several mandates and projects.
