<p>To date, the UK has committed £744 million in the international fight against COVID-19.
We are a key contributor to the UN’s Global Humanitarian Response Plan, which is supporting
the most vulnerable, including women and girls, refugees and migrants.</p><p>New UK
funding to the UN’s refugee agency (UNHCR) and other partners will help install hand-washing
stations and isolation and treatment centres in refugee camps, provide protection
and education services for forcibly displaced children, and increase access to clean
water for displaced people living in areas of armed conflict.</p><p>The UK is also
providing significant support to the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) to help
make sure life-saving family planning, HIV drugs and equipment needed to care for
the survivors of sexual assault can get to the most vulnerable in developing countries.
Further support to UNICEF and the Education Cannot Wait initiative will ensure disadvantaged
children do not get left behind and deliver protection services for children and women
affected by violence.</p>
