Résumé
In 2020, WFP reached 121, 683 people with food and nutrtion assistance, with women and girls representing more than half the beneficiaries. As part of long-term sustainability, WFP supported the Government to strengthen market-based approaches for solving nutrition challenges among populations with purchasing power; this included training retailers to support demand creation for specialised nutritious foods (SNFs) to promote a sustainable supply chain. For the vulnerable enrolled in the stunting prevention programme, SBCC was combined with voucher transfers for nutritious foods. The programme enhanced the capacity of private local food processors to produce and market quality and safe specialized nutritious foods for the stunting prevention programme. Social protection programmes were made more responsive to the needs of the most vulnerable persons, particularly during the COVID-19 crisis. Daily-wage earners whose livelihoods were affected by the lockdown received cash based transfers in alignment with the Livelihood Empowerment Against Poverty (LEAP). This collaboration has opened up opportunities for further collaboration on financial inclusion. Smallholder farmers who were similarly affected by COVID-19 also received cash based transfers to sustain them through the planting season. People living with HIV received capacity strengthening in livelihoods and seed capital to provide for their food security and nutrition needs.
