Development cooperation manifesto

20 June 2017

Today, together with Girls Rights Watch and several political youth organisations, we handed out our manifesto on development cooperation to members of parliament.

We call on the Lower House to meet the European minimum standard of 0.7% of development cooperation every year and preferably even raise it to 1% of our budget. In addition, we want the Netherlands to uphold the Sustainable Development Goals such as Gender Equality. #YouthforYouth
