#KeepThePromise (November 2022 - February 2023):

  • Compared to 2022, the overall international assistance funding was cut by $1.3 billion in Budget 2023 – a 15% cut.
  • This means that the Government failed to #KeepthePromise it made to increase international aid every year.
  • There are no new announcements for international development in this budget. The commitments it includes were already announced last year.
  • The decision by the government to decrease international aid comes amidst a world facing multiple crises around climate change, hunger, conflict, and an erosion of human rights and democratic values.

We achieved a lot in 2022 across many of our campaigns and issue areas. To see the full extent of our impact and action, check out our 'A Parliamentarian’s Year in Review 2022'!
