Liz Ditchburn

Liz Ditchburn is the head of the Independent Commission for Aid Impact (ICAI) in the UK, known for her scrutiny of British aid spending and policy effectiveness. In a recent report, she highlighted the inadequate response of the UK government regarding atrocity prevention in Sudan, particularly during the ongoing conflict that has led to a humanitarian crisis. Ditchburn's evaluation pointed to resource constraints as a key factor in the UK's failure to adopt more ambitious plans for protecting civilians in Sudan, emphasizing the need for prioritization of atrocity prevention in British foreign aid policy.
