英國和美國的對外援助政策(foreign aid policies) 都在大幅縮減,並轉向「交易型」優先事項,更加重視國家利益而非傳統的援助發展。 英國對外援助政策從慷慨大方轉變為精打細算: 將其援助預算從國民總收入的0.7%削減至0.3%,用於國防和應對移民問題。重點領域:到2030年,90%的援助項目將性別平等列為優先事項,並計劃在2026-2029年間投入約60億英鎊用於氣候融資。全球發展中心;美國優先事項:重點從長期援助轉向優先發展貿易、私營部門夥伴關係以及應對來自中國等競爭對手的影響。影響:這導致國際氣候融資和多邊資金大幅減少。查塔姆研究所

英國和美國的對外援助政策都在大幅縮減,並轉向「交易型」優先事項,更加重視國家利益而非傳統的援助發展。美國在川普政府2025年政策調整後,大幅削減援助(包括關閉美國國際開發署),優先發展符合「美國優先」目標的貿易和投資。英國已將其援助預算從國民總收入的0.7%削減至0.3%,用於國防和應對移民問題。查塔姆研究所

英國對外援助政策(截至2026年)

減少承諾:英國計劃在2027/28財年將其援助支出削減至國民總收入的0.3%左右,較先前0.7%的法定承諾大幅下降。


優先事項:資金重點用於人道援助和減少非法移民(例如,每年2400萬英鎊專款)。

策略:重點在於加強區域穩定以防止移民,同時促進永續貸款以應對債務問題。

重點領域:到2030年,90%的援助項目將性別平等列為優先事項,並計劃在2026-2029年間投入約60億英鎊用於氣候融資。全球發展中心


美國對外援助政策(截至2025-2026年)


交易型方法:2025年「重新評估和調整美國對外援助」政策規定,援助必須與美國的外交政策利益完全一致。


大幅削減:川普政府開始進行重組,主要措施包括凍結援助支出和進行結構調整,正如查塔姆研究所所述,並在維基百科中有所報導。


優先事項:重點從長期援助轉向優先發展貿易、私營部門夥伴關係以及應對來自中國等競爭對手的影響。影響:這導致國際氣候融資和多邊資金大幅減少。查塔姆研究所

AI Overview
Both UK and US foreign aid policies are undergoing significant contraction and a pivot toward "transactional" priorities, focusing on national interest over traditional development aid
. The US, following 2025 policy changes under the Trump administration, is cutting aid significantly (including closing USAID) to prioritize trade and investments that align with "America First" goals. The UK has slashed its aid budget to 0.3% of GNI, down from 0.7%, to fund defense and tackle migration.
United Kingdom (UK) Foreign Aid Policy (As of 2026)
  • Reduced Commitment: The UK is cutting aid spend to around 0.3% of its GNI by 2027/28, a sharp drop from its previous legal commitment of 0.7%.
  • Priorities: Funding is focused on humanitarian aid and reducing illegal migration (e.g., £24 million per year ringfenced).
  • Strategy: Emphasis is on building stability in regions to prevent migration, alongside promoting sustainable lending to combat debt.
  • Focus Areas: Gender equality is prioritized in 90% of aid programmes by 2030, with roughly £6bn in climate finance planned for 2026–2029.
United States (USA) Foreign Aid Policy (As of 2025-2026)
  • Transactional Approach: The 2025 "Reevaluating and Realigning United States Foreign Aid" policy dictates that aid must be fully aligned with US foreign policy interests.
  • Drastic Cuts: The Trump administration began restructuring, with major moves including the freezing of aid spending and restructuring, as described by Chatham House and reported in Wikipedia.
  • Priorities: The focus shifted from long-term aid to prioritizing trade, private-sector partnerships, and countering influence from competitors like China.
  • Impact: This has led to a significant reduction in international climate finance and multilateral funding.
