<p>The Department for International Development (DFID) has committed £300m for 2013-2019
to support polio eradication efforts led by the Global Polio Eradication Initiative
(GPEI). GPEI is co-funded by a broad range of public and private donors including
the European Union. It works with polio-affected countries and implementing partners,
including civil society groups such as Rotary International, to eradicate polio. The
Secretary of State for International Development has also engaged closely with Rotary
International on its work on polio eradication and was presented with Rotary’s Polio
Eradication Champion award in November last year.</p><p> </p>
