SERBIA 2010-2013 The Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC) and the State Secretariat for Economic Affairs (SECO) have together drawn up the Cooperation Strategy Serbia 2010-2013 in association with development partners in Serbia and with various interested parties from the Swiss government. The Strategy represents Switzerland’s commitment to supporting Serbia’s transition towards a functioning democracy and a sustainable market economy. The Cooperation Strategy has been prepared in line with relevant national documents, such as the National Programme for Integration with the European Union, the Needs of the Republic of Serbia for International Assistance, social inclusion policies, and selected sector policies and strategies. It is further based on the experiences gained and lessons learned by Swiss Cooperation partners in the past. This is the third Cooperation Strategy for Serbia. Switzerland has been supporting Serbia since 1991. The initial focus on humanitarian aid activities has shifted to a support for the transition process. The present Strategy sets the framework and broad directions of Switzerland’s cooperation in Serbia from 2010 to 2013. The document contains six main parts. The first is concerned with how the context has developed and the current situation. The second focuses on a review of the cooperation from 2007 to 2009, and the third part outlines strategic orientations. The fourth part gives an overview of strategic principles, the fifth addresses budget and programme management, and the sixth part describes the monitoring and controlling system. While both SECO and SDC will work together closely on the implementation of the Strategy, each institution fulfils a specific role and remains responsible for the financing and execution of its part of the Swiss portfolio and for the achievement of the corresponding objectives and results. The Cooperation Strategy Serbia 2010-2013 was approved in December 2009.
