Hungary provided USD 304.3 million (preliminary data) of ODA in 2023 (USD 255 million in constant terms), representing 0.15% of GNI.1 This was a decrease of 31.3% in real terms in volume and a decrease in the share of GNI from 2022. Hungary's ODA has decreased since 2020. While Hungary had surpassed the 0.25% ODA/GNI target it had set itself to reach by 2025, the sharp drop in 2023 means that Hungary is currently not in line with its commitment. It remains committed to achieving a 0.33% ODA/GNI ratio by 2030 and collectively at the EU level to achieve a 0.7% ODA/GNI ratio by 2030. Hungary provided all of its ODA as grants in 2022.2
In 2023, Hungary ranked 29th among Development Assistance Committee (DAC) member countries when ODA is taken as a share of GNI. In 2022, scholarships constitute a large share of Hungary's bilateral ODA (47.7%), leading to a strong sectoral focus on education. Among DAC members, it had the second-highest share of country-programmable aid in 2022 (78.4%). Funding for CSOs based in developing countries constituted 51.9% of Hungary's total funding for CSOs in 2022, the highest share of all DAC members.
