CKU Fund<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

CKU funding comes from Danida, the development cooperation programme of the Danish government. The CKU fund must therefore follow Danida criteria for support extended through NGOs. This means that applications are assessed according to a rights-based approach, and take into account the policies and strategies for NGO support that the Danish parliament and government have adopted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Danish government has set down the priorities in its ‘Policy for Danish Support to Civil Society’. The objective of this policy is to “Ensure that civil society in the global South has the space and capacity to gain influence to combat poverty, promote human rights, equality, and sustainable government in an accountable, inclusive and transparent manner, in particular in favour of poor and excluded groups”.\n\nPartnership between Christian churches and organisations holds potential to strengthen the capacity of the churches to take on their diaconal responsibility. This enables them to become active and positive civil society actors, bringing lasting changes in their communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
