<p>Under the Conflict, Stability and Security Fund, the UK has delivered over £100million
in support to Syria, Jordan and Lebanon since the start of the crisis. This has focussed
on strengthening the moderate opposition, building resilience against extremists,
fostering civil society structures in besieged areas, promoting Human Rights, delivering
basic governance and laying the foundations for a more peaceful and inclusive future
for Syria. Further details of our funding can be found on the Gov.uk website.</p><p>The
UK has always punched above its weight in helping deal with the effects of the Syria
crisis. Our vision for Syria is an open, democratic society with greater social, economic
and political participation where violent extremism does not have a place and where
refugees feel safe to return. That is why, alongside our pledge of over £1.1 billion
in humanitarian aid, the Prime Minister announced a commitment of at least £1 billion
to reconstruction in Syria during the 26 October Commons debate.</p>
