Under the OECD's DAC code 13040 the UK spent:

In 2018

i) £11.1 million of bilateral Official Development Assistance (ODA), including £10.1 million from FCDO.

ii) £137.8 million of imputed UK share of core multilateral ODA.

In 2019

i) £8.6 million of bilateral ODA, including £8.3 million from FCDO.

ii) £119.5 million of imputed UK share of core multilateral ODA.

In 2020

i) £9.5 million of bilateral ODA, including £8.4 million from FCDO.

ii) £249.9 million of imputed UK share of core multilateral ODA.

In 2021

i) £5.8 million of bilateral ODA, including £4.5 million from FCDO.

ii) Imputed UK share of core multilateral ODA is not yet available for this year.

UK ODA is published in line with the OECD DAC purpose code standards, 13040 is defined as "STD control including HIV/AIDS" and no further spend disaggregation is available. Please note, total UK core contributions spent in each sector are estimated based on the breakdown of ODA reported by each multilateral organisation.
