Public support is crucial for shaping effective development and foreign aid policies. The Development Engagement Lab (DEL) has conducted comprehensive surveys in France, Germany, Great Britain, and the U.S. to track and analyse public attitudes on foreign aid and engagement with sustainable development. This data descriptor presents multiple datasets curated by DEL, identifying shifts in public opinion and behaviour, alongside underlying mechanisms explaining these attitudes and actions. DEL's data comprises nationally representative panel data (2019 - 2023), repeated cross-sections (2019 - 2024), and several foreign aid subject-specific datasets. DEL has made available 87 datasets totalling 246,352 observations from 129,128 unique respondents. We have developed an R package, "DELdata", to facilitate the use and dissemination of these datasets. DEL data will enable scholars and policymakers to produce valuable insights that will generate a better understanding of how citizens think about, and engage with, global poverty and sustainable development.
