Nearly 23 million extra deaths worldwide by 2030 as aid cuts bite, study says
"From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging. At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground."
"Nearly 23 million additional deaths are expected by 2030 as a result of countries like the US and UK dramatically cutting their overseas aid, a new report estimates. The peer-reviewed study, produced by the Barcelona Institute for Global Health (ISGlobal) and published in the influential health journal The Lancet, finds that cuts to aid programmes in 93 countries - including 38 in Sub-Saharan Africa - will result in 22.6m extra deaths by 2030."
Donations fund journalists to cover developing stories across reproductive rights, climate change, and Big Tech while enabling free access to reporting without paywalls. A peer-reviewed study from the Barcelona Institute for Global Health (ISGlobal), published in The Lancet, estimates nearly 23 million additional deaths by 2030 due to dramatic cuts in overseas aid by countries including the US and UK. The study attributes 22.6 million extra deaths across 93 countries, including 38 in Sub-Saharan Africa. The projected toll includes about 5.4 million children under five and has been described as a humanitarian catastrophe that requires urgent action.
