The Government's aid programme, which is managed by Irish Aid in the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, is sharply focused on the fight against global poverty and hunger. Co-operation with development Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) represents a very important element of the aid programme. Ireland has consistently channelled a higher proportion of its overall development assistance through NGOs than most other international donors, reflecting the longstanding strong support of the Irish people for the work of Irish aid agencies and missionaries. In 2010, the Government, through Irish Aid, provided over €111 million in funding to Irish development NGOs. In 2007, over €126 million was provided;in 2006, over €109 million;and in 2005, over €74 million. Funding to the NGOs is provided to support their long term development work and for emergency and humanitarian assistance, and work on development education.
The following is an outline of all Irish Aid funding provided to Irish NGOs in 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2010.
