The table shows the amount of money given in aid of technology of developing countries by charaties in the US, EU and other countries from 2006 to 2010
Task
The table compares the quantity of money that charity organizations in the US, EU and other nations supported the development of technology in poor countries between 2006 and 2010.
Overall, the US was the largest supporter in this field. Much more money was spent on aiding developing countries over that time.
In 2006, the total money from all charity sources to help underdeveloped nations upgrade technology was 15.7 billion USD, in which the US accounted for 9.7 billion USD. Over the four-year period, the sum increased twofold to 30 billion USD, while there was a faster rise in the latter to 22.7 billion USD.
EU countries always recorded a slightly higher contribution in comparison with others, at 3.3 and 2.7 billion USD in 2006. Then, both figures climbed gradually by 0.5 and 0.4 billion only after the initial two years. However, there was a marginal fall in the financial support in these two regions in the next year before they recovered to 4.0 and 3.3 respectively in 2010.
