Written Question
Developing Countries: Food
Tuesday 26th November 2024

Asked by: Alice Macdonald (Labour (Co-op) - Norwich North)

Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what steps he is taking to help tackle global hunger.

Answered by Anneliese Dodds - Minister of State (Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office)

We are urgently addressing catastrophic forms of hunger through diplomatic and humanitarian channels. The Foreign Secretary recently committed to doubling our aid for those affected by war in Sudan. Last week, the Prime Minister announced the UK’s Board-level role in the Global Alliance against Hunger and Poverty. This will pool resources and expertise for long-term solutions, backed by new £70m UK support, including for climate-resilient food production.
