| Contexto | Private Sector Development (PSD) is a powerful tool to create more equitable and more inclusive employment and income. Many development actors recognise the contribution of this approach to poverty reduction. Moreover, the role and options for the private sector as an engaged partner in development projects is of high importance to SDC. Hence, it is crucial to exchange information on practical experiences and research on these topics. DCED members develop and set common standards in PSD, i.e. Results Measurement, where SDC has been strongly involved and is applying the DCED standard in many programmes. |
| Objetivos | The overall goal of DCED is to raise donor’s impact in poverty reduction and to overcome the beneficiaries‘ dependency on aid via influencing the quality and quantity of private sector development programmes. |
| Grupos destinarios | DCED activities will directly affecct the development actors and indirectly their target groups, i.e. in SDCs case low-income households in developing countries through private sector development and other interventions. |
| Efectos a medio plazo |
The specific objectives are in line with DCEDs vision of “being an independent and respected point of reference for standards, knowledge and data on the role of the private sector in development” and translate into that the DCED is a) widely recognized as the leading source of information and guidance on PSD, b) demonstrates that donors have effective approaches to achieve PSD c) and explores and advances knowledge in new themes, in response to demand from member agencies and changing circumstances. |
