The Government remains committed to the target agreed at the UN to provide 0.7% of Gross National Income in Official Development Assistance (ODA). The commitment was reaffirmed in A Better World, Ireland's International Development Policy, and again in the Programme for Government.

Ireland’s total ODA for 2024 was €2.35 billion, representing 0.56% of Gross National Income (GNI). Excluding ODA-eligible support for Ukrainian refugees in their first year in Ireland, the figure was €1.72 billion, or 0.41% as a percentage of GNI. This was an increase from 0.38% in 2023.

Annual figures from 2020 to 2024 are set out below in tabular format.
