The Department's conflict and atrocity prevention funding is embedded across our diplomacy, development, humanitarian, human rights and multilateral activity. We will continue to prioritise funding where it has the greatest preventative impact, including in fragile and conflict-affected states, with UK spend in these countries increasing to over 70 per cent of all country and regional spending by 2028/29.
