UK Contribution to the Queen Elizabeth Diamond Jubilee Trust

IATI Identifier: GB-1-203754

Description

To provide up to £50m in 'matched' funding over the lifetime of the Queen Elizabeth Diamond Jubilee Trust, from 2013/14 to 2018/19. The matched funding will come from a variety of governmental, non-governmental and private sector corporate sources from across the Commonwealth (including the UK), offering a unique opportunity for a diverse and collaborative partnership with global reach. Department for International Development (DFID) support is intended to be channelled mainly into the programmes to tackle avoidable blindness – a significant cause of disability worldwide. Visual impairments affect 285 million people worldwide, of whom 39 million are blind. There is strong coherence with the Global Goals, and with a range of other DFID work streams.
