Summary
WFP’s alignment with national priorities ensures that its assistance to improve food security and nutrition reaches the poorest and most vulnerable rural population and strengthens the national capacity to implement a social protection scheme focusing on poverty alleviation, improved livelihoods, and enhanced nutrition programmes for early childhood and school-aged children. These efforts contributed to the achievement SDG2 and SDG17, directly benefiting over 72,600 people in the country. Cash-based transfers (CBT) amounted to USD 2.8 million. Women and men of targeted households attended nutrition education sessions that provided key nutritional guidance, especially for younger children. In an effort to complement the assistance provided to smallholder farmers, WFP started developing a micro-insurance product. WFP and FAO contributed to the implementation of the national school feeding law through the joint implementation of a pilot home-grown school feeding model funded by IFAD.
