a wide range of humanitarian and development programmes. For example, we support the

This includes programmes such as our £35 million investment in ending FGM, through

practice. The UK is one of the largest Government donors to UNICEF, the lead UN agency
on violence against children. In addition, we fund a range of other global organisations
including Save the Children and World Vision, whose work includes ending violence
against children.</p>
