The Council, chaired by the Secretary of State for International Cooperation, Pilar Cancela, approved a series of opinions and resolutions on the Preliminary Bill on Cooperation for Sustainable Development and Global Solidarity, the presentation and associated Council resolution on the documents: “The future of the financial cooperation reform in Spain: reform proposals”; “Guidelines for a feminist cooperation”, as well as the approval of the report on the transition to a new concept of policy coherence”. Finally, the ambitious work plan of the Council’s monitoring committee for 2022 was approved.

Moreover, aware as the various cooperation actors were of the tragic humanitarian consequences of the war in Ukraine, it was considered appropriate to approve a Cooperation Council Declaration on that crisis.

The Secretary of State for International Cooperation introduced the plenary session with an assessment of the status of the draft bill and the subsequent regulatory developments regarding the statute of the AECID, financial cooperation, the status of the aid worker and the regulations on grants. Finally, she thanked all the actors involved in the reform of the Spanish development cooperation system for the work they have been doing.”
