answer text I am very clear that every pound of UK aid should go on saving and improving the lives of the poorest people in the world.

answer text <p>All our support in the Middle East is based on an assessment of need to ensure that vulnerable people are not discriminated against on any grounds, including religion.

We do not directly fund small organisations such as churches.</p><p>Faith-based organisations are eligible to access funding mechanisms to which DFID is a major contributor, such as the Humanitarian Pooled Funds in Iraq and Syria, and we encourage them to do so.
