The United Kingdom’s commitment to international development reflects cross-party support during the period under review and is central to its global brand. A resolute champion of inclusion, stability, prosperity and good governance, the United Kingdom uses its economic stature, convening power and membership in key global fora to advocate for an evidence-based and cutting-edge approach to these issues within the development system. This in turn has strengthened the United Kingdom’s soft power. The United Kingdom has recently stepped up its leadership on climate change. The United Kingdom’s Presidency of the Group of Seven (G7) and the 26th Conference of the Parties (COP26) of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change provide opportunities to further demonstrate that international development sits at the heart of United Kingdom (UK) international policy.
