Question to the Department for International Development:

To ask the Secretary of State for International Development, how much Official Development Assistance has been allocated to humanitarian aid projects as a result of extreme weather events since 2015.

DFID’s Official Development Assistance (ODA) spend, including on humanitarian aid, is published in our Statistics on International Development annual reports and can be found on the GOV.UK website: https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/department-for-international-development/about/statistics.

The figures are not disaggregated into spend specifically on extreme weather events given the interrelated factors driving humanitarian need in many contexts, including climatic conditions, instability, insecurity and vulnerability.
