The UK Government is committed to protecting children in conflict. DFID does not have targets for humanitarian aid spending on specific groups. Our humanitarian programming is based on an assessment of need in any given context and on evidence of which interventions are most effective. DFID is providing significant support to protect children from violence around the world through our humanitarian programming. Protection is at the centre of our humanitarian action, with partners adhering to minimum standards to ensure the safety and dignity of those most vulnerable, including children.<\/p>

DFID is committed to protecting vulnerable children around the world and helping them to grow up free from violence.<\/p>

<\/p>

Violence has long lasting impacts on children\u2019s health, their capacity to learn, and their economic prospects in later life. Violence against children is also proven to have a negative impact on the economy. One estimate models the annual costs of physical, sexual and psychological violence against children to be up to 8 per cent of global Gross Domestic Product, which equates to approximately US$7 trillion.<\/p>

<\/p>

The economic effect of violence against children is one of the reasons why DFID is the leading supporter of the Global Partnership to End Violence Against Children.<\/p>

The Department for International Development is deeply concerned by the recent attacks in northern Borno and is committed to providing support to those who have been forced to flee their homes. Our partners are increasing their assistance in Maiduguri and Monguno to make sure that newly displaced people have rapid access to food, shelter, healthcare, protection, and water. DFID is one of the largest donors to the World Food Programme\u2019s emergency operation in Nigeria, which is scaling up to provide cash and food assistance to new arrivals.<\/p>

The UK remains extremely concerned at the large increase in demolitions in the Occupied Palestinian Territories since the start of 2016, compared to the monthly average in 2015, and continues to raise this with the Israeli authorities. Demolitions and the evictions of Palestinians from their homes cause unnecessary suffering, are harmful to the peace process, and in all but the most exceptional of cases are contrary to international humanitarian law.

The UK has been at the forefront of the response to the crisis in Syria and the region, and has pledged a total of £1 billion, our largest ever response to a single humanitarian crisis. Of this, £111 million has been allocated to provide protection, psychosocial support and education for children affected by the crisis in Syria and the region. This includes funding to establish women and children\u2019s centres in Iraq\u2013 which provide counselling and support for women, and safe spaces for children to play and learn.
