- The United States was the first to slash billions in foreign assistance in 2025, but other major donors have followed suit.
- At least one million women and girls have been cut off from life-saving support over the last 18 months due to global aid cuts, according to new findings by the United Nations.
- Published on Friday, the UN Women report found that although organisations serving women and girls have seen a rise in demand for services in the past year, 90 percent say they cannot meet needs on the ground as funding has evaporated.
