德国发展援助预算面临持续下滑。12027年预算将从10亿欧元以上下降至9.5亿欧元以下,这是德国发展援助支出连续第五年的下降。1自2022年以来,发展援助预算已被削减约三分之一,当年预算约为14亿欧元。1人道主义援助预算的降幅更为显著,从2022年的超过30亿欧元跌至2025年的10亿欧元。1
德国发展部长雷姆·阿拉巴利·拉多万在2027年预算辩论中指出,尽管全球面临气候危机和人道主义灾难,预算削减仍在进行。1他表示,"气候危机威胁整个世界,没有国家能单独应对。"1然而,这些削减措施正在加剧人道主义困境。根据调查数据,超过1000万人将因援助减少而无法获得帮助,涉及34个组织。1非政府组织联合会VENRO主任迈克尔·赫布斯特警告称,"融资减少正在加剧已经危急的局势。"1
国际发展组织呼吁将发展合作从德国的债务制动条款中豁免。1一份请愿书已获得约10万个签名,支持者担忧预计到2030年全球可能有2260万人因此丧生。1
Germany's development aid budget is set to fall below 9.5 billion euros in 2027, marking the fifth consecutive year of decline 1. The reduction represents a cut of approximately one-third since 2022, when the budget stood at around 14 billion euros 1. During budget debates, Germany's development minister highlighted the paradox, noting that global challenges including climate crises and humanitarian disasters continue to intensify even as funding shrinks 1.
The cuts extend beyond general development assistance. Humanitarian aid allocations have plummeted from over 3 billion euros in 2022 to 1 billion euros in 2025, reflecting the severity of the reductions 1. According to investigations, these budget constraints will leave more than 10 million people across 34 organizations without access to aid 1. Non-governmental organizations have warned that without policy changes, approximately 22.6 million people could face fatal consequences by 2030 1.
Civil society has mobilized in response to the cuts. A petition opposing the reduction gathered approximately 100,000 signatures, calling for development cooperation to be exempted from Germany's debt brake mechanism 1. Michael Herbst, director of VENRO, an umbrella organization for development cooperation groups, stated that "declining financing is exacerbating an already critical situation" 1. The development minister countered that "the climate crisis threatens the entire world, and no single country can tackle it alone" 1.
