The UK has contributed £15 million to UNICEF's appeal for Ukraine and a further £5 million to UNICEF in Moldova. Our support has helped UNICEF provide formal and non-formal education to over 850,000 children, as well as access for Ukrainian women and children to essential services including health, nutrition, and specialist trauma and Gender Based Violence services. Delivery of this assistance is ongoing. An assessment of UNICEF delivery will be published in the Annual Review of the UK's humanitarian support. Decisions on humanitarian spending beyond March 2022, including to education, are to be determined.
