<p>The UK has delivered over £100m in non-humanitarian support to Syria, Jordan and
Lebanon since the start of the crisis from the Conflict, Stability and Security Fund
and its predecessor, the Conflict Pool. This has focussed on strengthening the moderate
opposition, including the High Negotiations Committee of the Syrian Opposition, the
Syrian National Coalition, civil society, civil defenders, local councils, human rights
and media activists. We have also provided some non-lethal support to elements of
the Syrian armed opposition</p><p><br>The UK’s support is building resilience against
extremists, fostering civil society in besieged areas, providing search and rescue
training, medical support, promoting human rights, delivering basic governance and
laying the foundations for a more peaceful and inclusive future for Syria.</p><p>
