<p>UK humanitarian funding is allocated according to assessed humanitarian needs.</p><p>The UK is a major funder of United Nations Refugee Agency (UNHCR) providing substantial core funding to support it to work with refugees all over the world. In addition the UK has provided specific funding for refugees from Syria, channelled through the UNHCR and to the UN Emergency Response Fund. Our contribution is not earmarked to specific countries. This allows UNHCR and UN agencies to work with local partners to allocate UK funding flexibly to respond to a rapidly changing situation in order to ensure aid reaches those who need it most.</p><p>This is a very complex refugee situation. Not all Syrians outside Syria are, or would want to be, registered as refugees. For this reason our funding is being delivered flexibly to agencies working on the ground to ensure it is allocated to those most in need.</p>
