Contesto

Founded in 1961, the UN World Food Programme (WFP) is the world’s largest humanitarian agency saving and changing lives, delivering food assistance in emergencies and working to improve nutrition and build resilience. Against the 2020 COVID-19 crisis, climate shocks and an unprecedented number of violent conflicts since World War 2, food insecurity is reaching record levels on all continents. Early 2022, up to 283 million people are acutely food insecure or at high risk; famine-like conditions remain a real possibility for 45 million people in 43 countries facing emergency or catastrophic levels of acute food insecurity, against 41 million people in June 2021. In March 2020, WFP joined with the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) to call the international community to donate USD 5.5 billion to avert famine through a major scale-up of its operations in 43 countries, esp. the world's largest hotspots (Afghanistan, Yemen, DR Congo, Madagascar, Nigeria, Ethiopia, South Sudan and Sudan); until root causes are addressed, the emergency goes on.

Switzerland focuses its support to WFP operations in its own priority countries through annual contributions softly earmarked to WFP offices and related Country Strategic Plans (CSPs).

Obiettivi

WFP’s mission is a world in which every man, woman and child has access at all times to the food needed for an active and healthy life.

The vision for 2030 underlying WFP’s strategic plan for 2022-2025 is that the world has eradicated food insecurity and malnutrition (SDG 2 - Zero Hunger) and national and global actors have achieved the SDGs (SDG 17 - Partnerships for the Goals).

The overall goal of WFP is providing immediate food assistance in life-threatening situations while supporting countries in ensuring no one is left behind.

Gruppi target Food insecure men and women worldwide.
