Introduction

ThisfactsheetanalysesseveralmajortrendsintheUnitedKingdom’sallocationofofficialdevelopmentassistance(ODA)between2018and2022.UKODAhassteadilydeclinedsince2019,inpartduetothegovernment'stemporary

self-imposedreduction

inaid

spendingfrom0.7%to0.5%ofgrossnationalincome(GNI)followingthepandemic.

Alongsidethisreduction,certainareasofaidhaveexperiencedsubstantialincreasesin

recentyears,whileseveralothershavedeclined.2022sawalargeincreaseinrefugee

costs,drivenbothbyRussia’sinvasionofUkraine,aswellasthehighcostsofhosting

asylumseekersintemporaryaccommodation.Thegovernment’sinclusionofthesecostsunderthereducedaidbudget(0.51%ofGNIin2022)impliesthatlessfinancewas

subsequentlyavailableforworld’spoorestcountries.However,themostrecentFCDO
