reforms to tackle the long term challenges facing the country, including youth unemployment.</p><p>
</p><p>We have been increasing our support for these issues through the North Africa
Good Governance Fund, through which we will spend over £12m in 2019/20 – more than
doubling our support since 2014/15.</p><p> </p><p>The Prosperity Fund is a Fund with
27 multiyear programmes. With £1.2 billion to spend over 7 years the Fund had to prioritise

a priority country for the Fund.</p>
