Anti-Corruption Policy

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) is determined to maintain the highest standards of integrity and work ethics among its staff and across all areas of activity, including but not limited to international development cooperation. We therefore maintain a policy of zero tolerance towards corruption in all its forms.

The risk of corruption is a framework condition for development cooperation. However, the MFA has a zero tolerance towards corruption and reacts promptly when abuse by Danish funds is suspected or discovered.

MFA defines corruption as the misuse of entrusted power for private gain.
