24 countries are doing less to accelerate international development than in 2023 according to key indicators, with just 11 countries acting more internationally.🌍📉#CDI2025

🥇Sweden ranks first overall, followed by Germany and Norway. Germany remains the highest-ranked G7 and G20 country.

Most countries are giving less finance for development than in 2023. Fewer are channeling funds through multilateral organizations, and aid is increasingly directed away from the poorest countries.💰📉

The United States fell two places to 28th.⬇️ Even before steep aid cuts take effect, the US’s effort was falling with rising emissions pushing it further down the rankings.

The United Kingdom 🇬🇧 climbed two places to 5th, but its standing reflects aid levels before the government’s planned 40 percent budget cuts, suggesting that a steep fall is likely in future editions.

🇳🇱 The Netherlands dropped out of the top ten for the first time, falling five places to 11th due to rising fossil fuel subsidies and weak investment standards.

🇱🇺Luxembourg and 🇮🇪Ireland made the biggest jumps up, each up 4 spots. Luxembourg's rise in the rankings stems from its increase in development finance, while Ireland climbed thanks to admitting significantly more migrants from poorer countries.

🌏More than three-quarters of countries cut their emissions between 2019 and 2023, but overall emissions across the countries ranked in the CDI still rose, driven by increases in China.
