DEL is in Berlin today presenting new data to partners, wonderful hearing new research on attitude strength & aid support from our partners at @DEval_Institute, using a bit of #DatabyDEL ! #globaldev

[Development Engagement Lab @DevEngageLab]

How susceptible are the public to rightwing populist rhetoric when it comes to overseas aid? Do populist talking points entrench opponents further? Who is most likely to be swayed?

Sebastian Schneider explains the findings from the team @DEval_Institute.

What about policy? The majority of British public would most like to see policy that compels private sector to produce more energy from renewable sources, followed by minimum standards for homes and early warning systems.

With the appointment of @rkyte365 as the new UK climate envoy and @DavidLammy recommitting the UK to tackling climate change, we're looking at UK public opinion on climate. What do you think? Where do the British public stand? Where do they want to see time & resources spent? 🧵

[Fiona Harvey @fionaharvey]

The UK’s new climate envoy will be former World Bank climate chief and Cop veteran Rachel Kyte, the Guardian can reveal https://t.co/fyasmAPqvO

[Development Engagement Lab @DevEngageLab]

Three-quarters of the British public believe @GOVUK action on climate is 'fairly, very, or extremely urgent.'

This amidst a slight drop in British public support for maintaining or increasing the aid budget, now just under 50%. #DatabyDEL #GlobalDev

UK overseas aid spend will reach 17-year low without urgent action, NGOs rightly warn ⁦@CommonsIDC⁩ https://t.co/HDk2y28558

Here is a breakdown of the engagement actions the French public took in the last year in relation to global poverty & overseas aid.

[Development Engagement Lab @DevEngageLab]

We saw a nice spike in June among those in France who have engaged with global poverty &/or overseas aid in the past year, and a corresponding dip in those less engaged.

Possibly #Olympics prep related? We'll test again in coming months!

#DatabyDEL @_Focus2030

[Development Engagement Lab @DevEngageLab]

Here's aid support in all the countries we survey, for comparison.

[Development Engagement Lab @DevEngageLab]

We've been tracking a drop in aid support among German public since 2019, most significantly from 68% in support of maintaining or increasing the aid budget in Jan 2022, to 47% in Jan 2024.

It's rebounded a little since Jan to 52% in June, but what's behind the drop?

#DatabyDEL

[Development Engagement Lab @DevEngageLab]

And those who intended to switch parties...

[Development Engagement Lab @DevEngageLab]

Among those UK voters who switched to #Labour in the last election, how many are supportive of overseas aid?

Just when you thought you were done with election polling: We're breaking down aid support by party AND looking at voters who made a switch.

[Development Engagement Lab @DevEngageLab]

The aid sector has made important strides in transparency @aidtransparency #2024Index with still a ways to go for many. We're looking at our data on trust in aid orgs in key donor countries, wondering how we might test transparency as a potential driver...
