The Strategy for Development Cooperation with Moldova (2011-2014) aims to ensure Moldova's integration with the EU and its values. Focused on three key sectors—Democracy, Human Rights and Gender Equality, Sustainable Infrastructure (with an emphasis on energy efficiency), and Market Development—this strategy outlines a total investment of approximately EUR 50 million over four years. Key principles include donor coordination, a rights-based approach, and enhanced collaboration with Swedish actors and other EU member states. Efforts will also involve integrating Transnistria into development cooperation.
