Humanitarian aid fell sharply in 2025, largely due to a drop in support from the United States, according to a recently published report from the U.N. Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs.
The Global Humanitarian Overview 2026 looks back at how much aid was delivered in the last year and projects forward to examine how much aid might be needed in the coming year.
The GHO shows that in 2025, just $20.5 billion of funding was received for humanitarian action, compared to $37 billion in 2024 and $43.3 billion in 2022.
