Denmark and GPE

Denmark has been a long-standing, strong supporter of GPE since 2008, hosting the first GPE Replenishment Conference in November 2011.

Most recently, Denmark pledged over DKK1.25 billion to GPE for the 2026-2030 period, reiterating its commitment to develop and strengthen climate-resilient education systems to mitigate the impact of climate change in GPE partner countries.

Denmark represents, together with Estonia and Sweden, the Donor 2 constituency of the Board of Directors.

H.E. Lars Løkke Rasmussen, Minister for Foreign Affairs, Denmark
Denmark will maintain our strong investment in the Global Partnership for Education with an intended contribution of approximately $150m for the next 4 years 2027 to 2030 [...] For Denmark investing in education is also about supporting stable, resilient, and productive societies, and about building trusted, equal partnerships for trade and investments and cooperation, and today such partnerships are as important as ever. [...] So for Denmark, education and GPE are both a smart development and a strategic investment.
