In 2016/17 DFID is funding 17 organisations delivering life-saving humanitarian support in Syria. These include UN agencies, international non-governmental organisations and the Red Cross/Red Crescent movement. We have agreed with the specified partner not to disclose publicly their identity because doing so could put their staff at risk.
