Summary
In 2020, WFP supported the Government of Côte d’Ivoire in crisis response by providing emergency food and cash-based transfers to affected populations, and made progress in long-term development programmes, including school feeding, strengthening the resilience of smallholder farmers, and providing capacity strengthening in food and nutrition security. To mitigate the socio-economic effects of the pandemic, a joint programme between WFP, UNAIDS and the Magic System Foundation provided timely cash-based assistance to over 2,300 vulnerable households in the district of Abidjan. The assistance contributed to the food and nutrition security of pregnant and lactating women, children aged 6-59 months, people living with HIV, elderly people and persons living with disabilities. During school closures, WFP ensured the continuity of its school feeding programme by distributing special take-home rations. WFP-supported women farmer groups benefited from strengthened technical and organizational capacities, increased productivity and improved access to markets, contributing to greater resilience, food security and empowerment. In partnership with the Ministry of Education through the Directorate of School Canteens, WFP continued its school feeding programme, supporting 125,000 schoolchildren in 613 public primary schools in seven regions. WFP continued to provide technical assistance to national partners through capacity strengthening activities, and continued to promote South-South and triangular cooperation.
