answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/05/2024 answer text <p>The UK is taking steps to promote resilience to climate change in Somalia. Last year, the Prime Minister announced up to £100 million to build resilience to climate shocks and strengthen food security for the most vulnerable including support for climate adaptive agricultural practices. We are also building the resilience of marginalised households and businesses in the agricultural and financial sectors in Somalia. In addition we have supported Somalia's membership of the Taskforce on Access to Climate Finance at COP28 as an anchor donor. UK aid is making a difference. Through the Somaliland Development Fund we are supporting sustainable land management and agricultural production.</p> answering member printed Lord Benyon question first answered 21/05/2024 13:44:49 answering member 1547 label Biography information for Lord Benyon

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 15/04/2024 answer text <p>Since the outbreak of conflict in April 2023, there has been a significant escalation of gender-based violence (GBV) in Sudan. The UK has pivoted our programme delivery to focus on GBV prevention, and protection and care for rape survivors. We have also integrated consideration of conflict-related sexual violence into the humanitarian system, making use of Women's Centres, mobile clinics and internally displaced persons' gathering points, for community engagement and service provision. In 2023, UK support provided for the delivery of 83,399 consultations offering sexual and reproductive health services, and delivered mental health and psychological support to over 104,225 people.</p> answering member printed Lord Benyon question first answered 15/04/2024 10:58:35 answering member 1547 label Biography information for Lord Benyon
