Ghana achieved the Millennium Development Goal 1A target of halving extreme poverty; the United Nations Development Programme noted this was met in 2006, ahead of 2015 deadline. We continue to work closely with Ghana to address the issues that matter to us both, in line with their vision of Ghana Beyond Aid, and our International Development Strategy. Details of UK Official Development Assistance (ODA) spend data is available through our publication Statistics on International Development: final UK aid spend 2021 (https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/statistics-on-international-development-final-uk-aid-spend-2021): country bilateral ODA, including for Ghana, can be found in Additional Table A4a. Spend data for 2022/2023 will be available in Autumn 2023.
