The UK continues to be a strong supporter of Ukraine's reform programme, a commitment the Prime Minister reiterated during President Zelenskyy's visit in October. Over the last year, the UK has provided a total of £40 million ODA and non-ODA assistance to support Ukraine's reform programme alongside broader UK objectives. As part of this support, the Good Governance Fund (GGF) is helping to address economic and governance reform in order to fight corruption, improve the business environment and increase accountability of government.

An annual summary of UK programming assistance to Ukraine since 2016 is published on the government website. The latest version can be found here:
