Extremadura´s Agency for International Development Cooperation

The Extremadura Agency for International Development Cooperation (AEXCID) is the management body for Extremadura cooperation, which combats poverty and works for sustainable human development, supporting and promoting International Development Cooperation. The Extremadura Agency for International cooperation and Development is in charge of the design of Extremadura development policy and delivering aid throughout the world. Moreover, playing the role of an international development Cooperation Agency, the Agency provides technical assistance and financial support for the design and implementation of Education for Development Projects. Among our modalities of Cooperation, Education for development is one of the main tools in order to promote development. In this context, the AEXCID develops a Programme for Youth in order to trainer them in Development for Cooperation policies since 2006. This program is an educational initiative of the regional government of Extremadura which intended to generate a pool of young professionals in the field of Cooperation for Development through theoretical and practical training that can help to improve the quality of the cooperation for development actions.
