<p>The UK is currently the second largest donor to the WFP, after the United States.
For 2015, the UK has so far provided a total of £270.6million in funding to WFP. UK
contributions are made up of unearmarked core funding (£40m in total for the financial
year 2015/16) and bilateral funding allocated by DFID country offices (which represents
the biggest proportion of UK funding).</p><br /><p>DFID will be in a position to announce
the UK core contribution to WFP for the financial year 2016 / 2017 once the Multilateral
Aid Review 2015 (MAR 2015) is published in March 2016. UK core contribution will be
informed by the results of the MAR assessment of WFP and the review of WFP performance
and effectiveness in using the core funding provided by UK.</p><br /><p>Bilateral
funding is decided by DFID at country level and is based on needs.</p>
