This paper aims to show the evolution of official aid in the country, its main donors and areas of action in relation to the National Strategy and the international development agenda. The emerging post-conflict scenario and the new global development agenda with Sustainable Development Goals, turn the international cooperation into a benchmark of funding for the effective fulfillment of the goals set by the government.
