<p>The UK regularly engages with the Government of Pakistan at a senior level to promote
minority rights and Freedom of Religion or Belief (FoRB). We prioritise our aid to
achieve maximum impact for the people of Pakistan in line with our strategic priorities,
including promoting FoRB. Our Accountability, Inclusion and Reducing Modern Slavery
programme (£39.5 million over the period 2018-2024) brings together community leaders
and minority representatives to promote tolerance. Our Hate Speech and Disinformation
programme (£4.2 million over the period 2022-2025) is working to protect marginalised
communities from hate speech online. The UK's programme of support for education has
helped thousands of children from religious minorities attend school and gain skills
(£130 million over the period 2023-2027). Our bilateral ODA (Official Development
Assistance) budget in FY 23/24 is £41.5 million. This is set to more than triple,
to £133 million, next year.</p>
