This is according to Jyllands-Posten and Seven59.dk.<\/p>\n<p>Should millions be spent on schools in Tanzania, water drilling projects in Mozambique, or refugees in Syria? These are just some of the questions being asked by the Danish Refugee Council (Dansk Flygtningehj\u00e6lp) and the Danish Red Cross as they face a significant shortfall in revenue.<\/p>\n<p>The Secretary General of the Danish Refugee Council, Andreas Kamm, said the world has changed dramatically over the past 15 to 20 years and he\u2019s concerned as to whether Denmark is getting full value for money. At the same time he urged the EU to reassess its own development aid funding.<\/p>\n<h2>Future development<\/h2>\n<p>“Things have gone bad in Afghanistan, very bad in Iraq, while Libya has virtually fallen apart,\u201d Mr. Kamm said. \u201cWe believed that when Gaddafi and Saddam Hussein were removed things would improve, but instead the situation has worsened. Is that something we\u2019ve addressed in our aid commitment?”<\/p>\n<p>His Red Cross counterpart, Anders Ladekarl, mirrored the concern about the planned cuts.<\/p>\n<p>“When you cut 2.6 billon kroner, the most dramatic cutback in development aid ever, then I agree that we need to address how we distribute the money. We believe there should be more spending on humanitarian issues, such as helping the four million refugees who are fleeing from Syria.”<\/p>\n<p>However, Secretary General Frans Mikale Jensen of DanChurchAid (Mellemfolkeligt Samvirke) warned against hasty ‘knee-jerk’ solutions. He said there\u2019s no need to rush through a completely new strategy over the summer but acknowledged the need to adapt aid to fit the changes that will be needed in the long run.<\/p>\n<p>The Liberals\u2019 development aid spokesman, Jakob Ellemann-Jensen, welcomed the organsations\u2019 willingness to enter into dialogue, warning at the same time they are facing a 15 percent reduction and a requirement to offer assistance to far fewer countries.<\/p>\n<p>universitypost@adm.ku.dk<\/p>\n<p>Read the original article (in Danish) <a href=\"http:\/\/jyllands-posten.dk\/indland\/ECE7820583\/Hj%C3%A6lpeorganisationer-er-klar-til-at-flytte-rundt-p%C3%A5-ulandsmilliarderne\/%22_blank%22\" target=\"_blank\" here>.<\/p>\n<p><em>Do you have a good story?
