donor's total aid fell more than 10% in the latest provisional year

  • 47% Share from donors whose total aid fell more than 10% (2024→2025) (USD 412.7 m)
  • 25% Rough estimate for 2025, not a forecast: less in this scope if those cuts fell evenly (USD 217.3 m)

Exposed: a donor whose total aid fell more than 10% in the OECD's provisional latest year. Rough estimate method: each donor's 2024 aid in this scope, reduced by the same percentage as its total aid fell from 2024 to 2025 in the OECD's provisional figures, summed over donors that fell more than 10%; donors that did not cut count as unchanged. It assumes each donor cut this country as much as its overall aid; in practice donors protect some countries and cut others harder. The OECD's country figures for 2025 will replace it, usually about a year after the year ends. Only the donors listed on the OECD card are assessed; multilateral donors are not in the OECD's donor totals.

US fiscal years run October to September; FY2026 is incomplete. Obligations are new commitments; disbursements are payments, often against earlier commitments, so they fall later than obligations. Agencies report with a lag and revise. Sectors use the OECD codes the US assigns, which can differ from the recipient's or the OECD's classification. Military and security assistance is excluded. Partners the US withholds by name (redacted) are left out of the partner list.

OECD Climate-related development finance, recipient perspective, 2022–2024: commitments in current USD millions; retrieved 2026-10-13. Commitments, not disbursements. Bilateral activities count at full value when climate is a principal or significant objective (OECD Rio markers), so the totals are an upper bound; multilateral development banks report only each project's climate component. The 'principal objective or climate component only' row is the stricter measure. Adaptation and mitigation overlap where an activity targets both, so they do not add up to the total. Zimbabwe: USD 170.4m in 2022 → USD 272.9m in 2024 (+60%); peak USD 272.9m in 2024.

Computed by the app: OECD CRS gross disbursements in this scope, 2024 (card E28), all official donors USD 886.4m; donors' total net ODA from OECD DAC1 (card E38). Exposed: a donor whose total aid fell more than 10% in the OECD's provisional latest year. Rough estimate method: each donor's 2024 aid in this scope, reduced by the same percentage as its total aid fell from 2024 to 2025 in the OECD's provisional figures, summed over donors that fell more than 10%; donors that did not cut count as unchanged. It assumes each donor cut this country as much as its overall aid; in practice donors protect some countries and cut others harder. The OECD's country figures for 2025 will replace it, usually about a year after the year ends. Only the donors listed on the OECD card are assessed; multilateral donors are not in the OECD's donor totals.

Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) global country data, including Cadre Harmonisé results for West Africa and the Sahel, national figures via the HDX Humanitarian API; latest current analysis per country and its projections; retrieved 2026-11-08. Phase 3+ counts people in Crisis, Emergency or Catastrophe. Shares are of the population analysed, which may be smaller than the national population. Projections are estimates made at the time of the analysis, not observations; a past projection covers a period that has ended without a newer published analysis. No IPC or Cadre Harmonisé analysis in the data for Zimbabwe: no figure, not zero need. Where no IPC or Cadre Harmonisé period covers today, FEWS NET's monthly estimate is added: people in Phase 3+ as a range, from FEWS NET's own analysis (a different method, so not comparable with the shares above).

UNESCO Institute for Statistics, February 2026 Data Release; latest year per measure within the last ten; retrieved 2026-11-08. Out-of-school rates count children of official school age who are not enrolled; completion rates count young people a few years above the final grade's age who finished that level; proficiency shares come from regional and international learning assessments (such as PASEC or PIRLS) taken in the year shown, so they are older and not comparable across assessment types.

Percentages compare with the 1989-2018 average for the same period. Recent periods use preliminary estimates that are replaced by final data about a month later. 'Dry period' marks regions whose average for the period is under 30 mm, where a percentage says little. Rainfall is one input to harvests and water supply, not a drought declaration. Driest regions first. Region names are matched to WFP's region codes from OCHA's common operational boundaries (current and earlier editions), checked against the size of each region in WFP's data.
