Global Objective
to ensure the commitment of EU citizens to development and contribute to sustainable lifestyle patterns of EU citizens.
EU involvement in DEAR is based on these two main principles:
Bringing an understanding of global issues to public is important, and development education and awareness raising can help achieve this objective.
The EU believes in the value of the DEAR programme, and annual amounts allocated to the programme have steadily grown, from 19 million EUR annually 10 years ago, to over 30 million EUR a year now.
At a time when budgets for development, and in particular for DEAR, are shrinking throughout Europe, continued and stable EU support to DEAR is a sign of EU's interest and investment in the sector.
DEAR is particularly relevant in the context of the new 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, given its universal focus. 3

4. Specific Objectives
1) to develop European citizens’ awareness and critical understanding of the interdependent world, of roles and responsibilities in relation to the development issues of the “People” and “Planet” pillars of the Consensus, and
2) to encourage their active engagement with global attempts to address these issues whilst simultaneously promoting fundamental values.
