The World Food Programme (WFP)

The World Food Programme (WFP) is the food assistance branch of the United Nations and the world’s largest humanitarian organization focused on hunger and food security. Established in 1961, WFP provides life-saving food aid in emergencies such as conflicts, natural disasters, and pandemics. It also supports long-term solutions to hunger through nutrition programs, school meals, and resilience-building projects. Operating in over 120 countries and territories, WFP aims to achieve zero hunger and ensure that every person has access to nutritious food. In 2020, the organization was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for its efforts to combat hunger worldwide.
