UK prioritising foreign aid that helps fight threats' to international cooperation
"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. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story."
"Baroness Chapman said that the UK would prioritise multilateral aid in coordination with other countries rather than bilateral aid, which flows directly from the UK to a partner nation - because the multilateral system was under threat, and the UK is intent on countering this. Baroness Chapman's comments came following a year of public criticism and funding cuts to institutions like the UN from President Donald Trump in the US."
The Independent reports across issues including reproductive rights, climate change and Big Tech, investigating topics such as Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC and producing the documentary 'The A Word' about American women fighting for reproductive rights. The organisation appeals for donations to fund journalists on the ground and emphasizes providing free access to reporting rather than using paywalls, arguing quality journalism should be available to everyone and funded by those who can afford it. The UK plans to prioritise multilateral overseas aid to institutions like the World Bank and UN, citing threats to the multilateral system after recent funding cuts and political pressures.
