History and lineage

| Program | Relation | Years with data | Actual spending over those years |
|---|---|---|---|

|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2020-21 | Obtain baseline information. | 2021 | 478 This indicator counts international commitments made at the political level which are demand-driven in response to the shifting international landscape, and therefore it is inappropriate to set a target. The 2020-21 result can be used as a baseline for comparison in future years. | No result reported |
| 2021-22 | ≥ 381 | 2021 | 484 Result exceeded target | Met |

| 2023-24 | ≥ 464 | 2024 | 834 | Met |
| 2024-25 | ≥ 680 | 2025 | 660 Results are slightly below target due to reduced demand for international political-level commitments, which are shaped by the evolving global context. | Not met |
