Answered by

Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office)
The UK remains committed to delivering impactful development assistance in line with our key priorities: tackling climate change and restoring nature, boosting global health systems, and responding to humanitarian emergencies. The African Development Fund (ADF) is a vital and long-standing multilateral partner that helps us deliver on those priorities.
The UK is proud to be hosting the pledging conference for the Seventeenth Replenishment of the ADF in London in December 2025. The UK's allocation to ADF will be announced in due course.
