Udfordringer for danske udviklingsengagementer i en tid med stigende autokratisering

Det seneste årti har set flere lande bevæge sig mod mere autokratisk styre, hvilket udvisker globale fremskridt af demokratisering, der er opnået i løbet af de sidste 35 år, og fodrer en voksende uro om fremtiden for demokratiet. Dette stiller komplekse udfordringer for danske udviklingsengagementer, der sigter mod at støtte lokal udvikling, fred og sikkerhed uden at støtte illegitime politiske regimer.

Indigenous peoples and green NGOs are surprisingly uneasy allies in the Arctic

Inuit have felt campaigns for animal rights as a threat to their livelihood and culture. While some green NGOs have gone lengths to realign with indigenous peoples in their reorientation to fight climate change, some Greenlanders find that climate policies threaten their right to development and self-determination.
