<p>DFID does not directly fund joint Israeli-Palestinian programmes. However, through
the Conflict Stability and Security Fund (CSSF), the UK provides support for the ‘Youth
Creating Peace On/Line’ project which encourages educational cooperation between Palestinians
and Israelis. The project, run by NGO ‘Kids Creating Peace’, uses dialogue and leadership
workshops to train participants to become peace advocates in their communities and
beyond. The UK is providing £40,000 to ‘Youth Creating Peace On/Line’ for 2016/17.</p><p>DFID
provided £349 million in support of Palestinian development from 2011-15 and will
provide a further £72 million in 2015-16. For a breakdown on how financial assistance
in the Palestinian Territories is spent, information is published on DFID’s Development
Tracker website (<a href="https://devtracker.dfid.gov.uk)" target="_blank">https://devtracker.dfid.gov.uk)</a>.</p>
