Statement on International Development Cuts

Members of the Coalition of Aid and Development Agencies in Northern Ireland work in some of the most difficult areas of the world providing life changing and lifesaving support. Work like this is possible because of UK development funding. So let’s be clear about what a reduction in development funding will mean. It will mean fewer children will receive life-saving nutrition, healthcare, and education, and years of progress in tackling global poverty and instability will be undone.
