<p>The UN estimates that 10.9m people are in need of humanitarian assistance in Democratic
People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) (an increase of 600,000 over 2018), all of whom
are food insecure. An estimated 10.3m people are under-nourished. The UK provides
no bilateral funding to the DPRK. The UK contributes to the UN Central Emergency Fund
(CERF), along with other bilateral donors. CERF provided US$10m in humanitarian funding
to DPRK in 2018, including allocations to the World Food Programme and Food and Agriculture
Organisation for work on nutrition security. The CERF makes independent decisions
on the allocation of resources based on assessed need.</p>
