The UK has been a consistently strong supporter of Moldova's conflict settlement and EU integration efforts. Over the last 5 years, the UK has provided Moldova with around £1,800,000 worth of bilateral projects, utilising various UK Foreign & Commonwealth Office (FCO) funds.

These projects have helped the Moldovan Government tackle corruption and organised crime, strengthen public administration, facilitate export of Moldovan goods to EU markets. Funds have also been channeled through various NGOs to support freedom of the media, conflict resolution, promoting democratic values and building the capacity of Moldovan civil society organisations.

The bulk of this funding comes from the FCO’s Strategic Programme Fund’s (SPF – formerly known as the Global Opportunities Fund), Reuniting Europe Programme. The principal aim of the programme is to support countries with the necessary reforms for EU accession. Details of past and current projects can be found below.
