Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 20 September 2023
9. Deputy Alan Dillon asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Foreign Affairs the breakdown of funding given by the State to all non-governmental organisations in receipt of €20,000 or more from Vote 27, for the year ending 2022, broken down by Irish- and foreign-based NGOs; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [39588/23]
View answerThe Department of Foreign Affairs provides grants from Vote 27 to NGOs to implement programmes and projects in countries classified by the OECD as eligible for overseas development assistance, as well as for global citizenship education in Ireland. The OECD has commended Ireland for the quality of our NGO partnerships as a “hallmark of Ireland's development cooperation”. The Irish international NGO sector in particular has a strong international reputation for effectiveness and leadership.
NGOs are well placed to ensure aid reaches those to whom it is intended and are informed of the realities on the ground. NGO funding is important because a healthy, independent and inclusive civil society empowers communities, contributes to good governance and provides a voice for marginalised people. NGOs also have a role to play in delivering and supporting access to basic services; promoting and advocating for human rights; and enabling citizens to participate in democratic processes. Our funding to NGOs for global citizenship activities in Ireland is working to increase public awareness and understanding of major global issues, helping people to critically explore how these relate to their lives.
A full list of funding provided to NGOs in 2022 is provided below, broken down according to whether they are Irish-based or foreign-based.
