Worldwide, Ukraine was, by far, the country that received the highest amount of net official development aid (ODA) from official donors in 2022, reaching 29 billion U.S. dollars. This comes as a result of the Russian invasion of the country in February that year. Syria followed in second with 8.2 billion dollars, with Egypt in third. In terms of regions, Sub-Saharan Africa received the highest net sum.

The source adds the following information: 'Official development assistance (ODA) is defined as government aid designed to promote the economic development and welfare of developing countries. Loans and credits for military purposes are excluded. Aid may be provided bilaterally, from donor to recipient, or channeled through a multilateral development agency such as the United Nations or the World Bank. Aid includes grants, "soft" loans and the provision of technical assistance. The OECD maintains a list of developing countries and territories; only aid to these countries counts as ODA.'
Net ODA is the amount received after loan repayments are subtracted.
