The UK has committed £394 million in economic and humanitarian aid in response to the current crisis in Ukraine. As part of our humanitarian response to the Ukraine crisis in 2022, we have provided £1m to UNFPA (United Nations Population Fund) which provides urgent sexual and reproductive health assistance to women and girls in Ukraine who have experienced gender-based violence. We have also deployed UK experts as part of the Preventing Sexual Violence Initiative to Ukraine, to support the work of national and international bodies and NGOs. The last five years of ODA spend can be found in the more detailed breakdowns of UK ODA, published annually in Statistics on International Development publications (https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/statistics-on-international-development).
