Summary
In 2019, despite WFP’s increased advocacy and vigorous resource mobilisation efforts with government and development partners, funding constraint across all strategic outcomes of the transitional interim country strategic plan (T-ICSP) impeded the implementation of planned activities. Efforts to secure funding from South-South Corporation and non-traditional donors including the UN Joint Programme accounted for 33 percent only of the country office total requirements for 2019. Nonetheless, WFP managed to reach 47 percent of the beneficiaries planned for assistance with 46 percent of the food planned for distribution across all the T-ICSP outcomes. Outcome 2 (support government school feeding initiative and provide nutritional support to populations affected by HIV/TB), outcome 3 (address root causes of malnutrition through the provision of micro-nutrient/supplementation to targeted populations and strengthen capacity for national and sub-national institutions) were the most affected by the resource challenges. In the 2018/2019 school year, WFP provided daily hot and nutritious meals to 20,000 schoolchildren in 62 schools through home-grown school feeding (HGSF), scaling up from 3,000 school children in 12 schools in 2016/17. In the 2019/2020 school year, WFP is providing HGSF to 35,243 in 126 schools.
