Fascinating Fact:

Bilateral aid is given directly from one government to another, often through agreements about how the money should be used.

In KS3 Geography, you learn how richer and poorer countries are linked through trade, debt and support. International aid includes money, equipment and expert help, and it can be given in different ways, such as direct government agreements, charity projects or emergency relief after disasters.

  • International aid: Help given by one country or organisation to another, usually in the form of money, goods or skills to support development or relief.
  • Bilateral aid: Aid given directly from the government of one country to the government of another country through an agreement.
