<p>We are acutely aware of the risks of delivering life-saving assistance in the midst
of Yemen’s conflict. DFID has a zero-tolerance policy to the diversion of UK aid funds
and seeks to minimise the risks to ensure life-saving assistance reaches those who
need it most.</p><p>We do this by only channelling support through organisations with
a strong record of delivering and monitoring assistance, such as UN agencies and international
NGOs. All of DFID’s partners and programmes are also subject to rigorous and regular
due diligence to ensure that UK aid goes directly to those who need it most. Moreover,
we fund an independent monitoring programme that provides third-party verification
of results that partners have reported to back to DFID.</p>
