Svenska missionsrådet (SMR) is a forum for churches and Christian organisations. Through SMR, the 35 member organisations can meet, exchange experiences and strengthen their competence. One of our main tasks is to enable NGOs in Sweden and the South to engage in development work. As part of our work for human rights we work to promote freedom of religion or belief. Swedish Mission Council is the umbrella for 35 member organisations, who have partner organisations in more than 50 countries in the world. Apart from that, one of our main partner organisation is Sida, the Swedish international development agency. Other partner organisations: Christian Council of Sweden, PMU, Church of Sweden, Digni, Danish Mission Council Development Department.

For over 30 years, INKOTA has been an ecumenical network of development-oriented grassroots organizations, parishes, fair-trade stores, and individuals.
We align ourselves with the worldwide movement of the critics of globalization and therefore, work for a world in which the human needs and interests of all people count more than the economic interests of a privileged group. Hereby we link our support for our partner groups in the South with public awareness building vis-a-vis development issues in Germany.

As Development Education Centre we aim to raise awareness of peace and environment related issues through information and education.
