We are restoring funding for women and girls and humanitarian aid over the Spending Review period.

No decisions on funding to individual organisations have been made to date. This will all be worked through as part of the FCDO's Business and Country Planning process over the coming months. Following the Spending Review, decisions on allocations and individual programmes will be published in the usual way.
