 Description:
WFP implemented the fourth year of the Country Strategic Plan (CSP) 2019-2024 which helped to provide life-saving assistance to camp-based refugees and continued the shift towards strengthening national capacity by building systems[1] to achieve sustainable development goal (SDG) 2: Zero Hunger. WFP reached a total of 289,587 people (49 percent women) with 56 percent of its annual needs-based plan funded. This included 11,292 persons with disabilities, and a combination of 9,802 metric tonnes (mt) of in-kind food, USD 8,183,252 in cash transfers to improve their food security and nutrition, and capacity strengthening. These activities benefited lead farmers, refugees, asylum seekers and returnees hosted in refugee camps and reception centres. The number of people reached increased by six percent from 2021, owing primarily to an increase in the number of WFP supported schools[2] and an influx of asylum seekers in 2022.[3] WFP contributed towards SDG target 2.2 by strengthening the capacity of 35,085 beneficiaries to improve their food security and nutrition status through social and behaviour change communication, agriculture and nutrition-sensitive training, provision of agricultural inputs, and community-led poverty reduction solutions. In line with WFP’s commitment to achieving SDG 17: Partnerships for the Goals, WFP maintained its capacity to support the Government and its partners to prepare for and respond to crises by strengthening existing national disaster management structures.
