DFID (Department for International Development)

The Department for International Development (DFID) was a UK government department responsible for managing international aid and development efforts. Its goal was to reduce poverty and improve living conditions in poorer countries through funding projects like education, healthcare, and infrastructure. DFID worked in partnership with governments, charities, and organizations worldwide to support sustainable growth and stability. In 2020, its functions were integrated into the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO), which now oversees UK aid and international development initiatives.
