Development Aid: Climate Change
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what proportion of his Department’s international climate finance was allocated to fragile and conflict-affected states in (a) 2023-24, (b) 2022-23 and (c) 2021-22.
Answered by Anneliese Dodds
UK International Climate Finance (ICF) is delivered through a range of multilateral, multi-donor and bilateral programmes, many of which operate across more than one country. Including only bilateral programmes that operate in identified fragile and conflict affected states (based on World Bank analysis) the UK spent £98 million ICF in 2021/22 and £56 million ICF in 2022/23. Figures for 2023/24 are not yet finalised.
