World Food Programme

2024

The World Food Programme (WFP) delivers food assistance during humanitarian crises, works with communities to improve nutrition, and aids communities in building resistance through development. The organization focuses most heavily on providing food assistance on the ground where it is needed most and at any given time the WFP has 5,600 trucks, 20 ships, and 92 planes delivering food and supplies around the world.

WFP produces reports, country strategic plans, fact sheets, and infographics, which can all be found in the organization’s publications portal. One example of a fact sheet provided by the organization is World Food Programme: Overview, which provides a brief synopsis of the workings of WFP. Another key publication from the World Food Programme is the annual Hunger Map, which depicts the number of undernourished people in each country. WFP hosts a data portal containing a seasonal data explorer and an economic data explorer. Each of these data sets provides country-specific data on a variety of indicators. The organization’s country portals provide an overview of the organization’s operations within each country and a downloadable brief. The World Food Programme also hosts a regularly updated news portal.
