SAVING LIVES
The World Food Programme (WFP) is a United Nations agency dedicated to helping families in need and others in the fight against global hunger. The United Nations World Food Programme provides assistance to people who are food insecure.
WFP is a neutral and independent international organization. It does not take sides in conflicts. WFP provides food to the most vulnerable people and communities, regardless of their origin or political affiliation.
What We Do
Assisting more than 115.5 million people in more than 120 countries each year, the World Food Program (WFP) is the leading humanitarian organization saving lives and changing lives, delivering food assistance in emergencies, and working with communities to improve nutrition and build resilience. As the international community has committed to end hunger, achieve food security and improved nutrition by 2030, one in nine people worldwide still do not have enough to eat. Food and food-related assistance lie at the heart of the struggle to break the cycle of hunger and poverty. WFP Lebanon provides humanitarian assistance to over 2 million vulnerable persons for food and other essential needs through cash-based transfers and in-kind food. WFP Lebanon also provides food assistance in the form of snacks and fresh food to school aged students and promotes resilient livelihoods and sustainable food systems. In addition to direct assistance to the most food insecure and vulnerable people, WFP also supports government institutions, partners, and other entities to strengthen their capacity to deliver social assistance.
