As a landlocked country, cross-border transportation of aid is essential for an effective humanitarian response in South Sudan. DFID is funding TradeMark East Africa to improve efficiency and capacity on the Uganda-South Sudan border at Nimule, and to work with the UN to speed up the importation on humanitarian goods.<\/p>
The World Food Programme (WFP) is also working, with DFID funding, to strengthen cooperation on land border crossings between Sudan and South Sudan. In June 2018 a one-year Memorandum of Understanding was signed between WFP and the Government of Sudan to enable the cross-border movement of humanitarian assistance for the South Sudan response.<\/p>"}

The UK gives no money to the Indian Government.<\/p>
Instead, the UK offers expertise, skills and investment to India in areas of mutual interest such as urban development, financial services, energy and security. The Prosperity Fund and Newton Fund support projects in India led by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office and the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy to deliver joint economic development priorities in India, focusing on areas which will generate jobs and lift people out of poverty.<\/p>

The UK remains at the forefront of the humanitarian response to the Syria crisis, which includes providing life-saving and life-changing support to millions of Syrians who have taken refuge in neighbouring countries. Working with the governments of neighbouring countries, including Jordan, Lebanon and Turkey, our assistance is focused on the most vulnerable Syrian refugees in the region, including children, to meet their immediate needs and improve their lives until they can safely return to Syria.<\/p>
<\/p>
Education is a key part of this work. We rely on regular assessment of education needs and learning outcomes, from implementing partners and UN agencies, in order to inform our decisions around our education response in the region. As a result, DFID funded partners in the region are providing educational activities, and child friendly spaces where children receive learning support and psychosocial care, both within refugee camps and in host communities. Overall, in 2017/18 alone, DFID\u2019s support provided over 584,000 children in the region with access to quality education.<\/p>"}

The exact number of Christians in Iraq is difficult to confirm, as Iraq has not held a nationwide census in many years. The UK remains concerned by the decreasing number of Christians and we are firmly committed to protecting all ethnic and religious minorities in Iraq and the region. Minister Burt met with the Archbishop of Erbil during his recent trip to Iraq, and UK Embassy staff regularly meet with representatives of Christian and other minority communities to discuss their situation. We continue to raise the needs of these communities with the Government of Iraq. For example, Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon reinforced the need to protect ethnic and religious minority communities with Iraqi Foreign Minister Al-Hakim in December 2018.<\/p>"}
