WFP - World Food Programme

Purpose

September 2022 - The World Food Programme (WFP) is the United Nations’ frontline agency in the fight against hunger. It responds to emergencies, saves lives by quickly getting food assistance (cash or in-kind) to vulnerable food-insecure populations and helps prevent hunger. As the global lead agency for logistics and emergency telecommunications, WFP plays a major role in providing common services for the humanitarian community. It transports humanitarian workers, carries light cargo for humanitarian agencies, and carries emergency medical and security evacuations. This project operates in Burkina Faso, Central African Republic, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Ethiopia, Guatemala, Kenya, Haiti, Honduras, Mali, Niger, Nigeria, Somalia, South Sudan, Sudan, Syria, and Yemen. It also includes support for WFP’s Immediate Response Account.
