DFID is committed to making its spending on aid more transparent both to UK taxpayers and to those who we work with to reduce poverty.
Our projects are carried out in developing countries around the world, ranging from emergency aid for countries affected by conflict or humanitarian crises, to ongoing support to improve health, education and sanitation in the poorest countries. In the past twelve months, DFID’s work has meant that we have:
• provided over 12 million people with better sanitation
• delivered almost 7 million anti-malaria bednets
• trained over 60,000 health professionals
• built or reconstructed over 12,000 classrooms
• helped vaccinate three million children against measles
• helped train over 100,000 teachers
• provided antiretroviral drugs to almost 100,000 people with HIV.
In our projects database, you can find summaries of each project we fund - what it aims to achieve and how much it costs.
Search for project information.
The database contains projects currently running or recently completed under a DFID-funded programme. It includes project descriptions, dates, purposes, locations, sectors, summary financial data and whether or not conditions are attached. Please refer to the frequently asked questions (FAQs) and the glossary for more detailed explanations of what appears in each field.
You can search for projects and then sort or filter the results. You can then print your results or save them to a spreadsheet. If you wish to re-use the data, you must reference DFID as the source.
We are committed to implementing the 2005 Paris Declaration on Aid Effectiveness and the 2008 Accra Agenda for Action. These agreements set out actions that must be taken by donors and partner countries to improve the quality of aid. Please see the related links on this page to find out more.
We are also taking steps to improve transparency in line with the commitments made through the International Aid Transparency Initiative. We will be reviewing the information we publish to ensure that it is consistent with the IATI standards as they are developed.
You can now subscribe to a variety of RSS feeds from our site. By adding an RSS feed to a web browser or an RSS reader, you can view new project information instantly.
If you run a website you can now pull in an XML feed of our projects. Web developers can get advice and instructions on how incorporate DFID project information into websites they administer by emailing ppisupport@dfid.gov.uk.
We are also working on incorporating additional information, such as details of conditions attached to certain projects.
