Summary
In Tajikistan, WFP is assisting national authorities to ensure access to nutritious and sufficient food for all people, end malnutrition, build sustainable food systems and resilience to climate change and, in cooperation with other development partners, strengthen national capacities to implement the SDGs. The school feeding programme continues to be WFP’s largest operational component in Tajikistan, having supported more than 420,000 primary schoolchildren in about 2,000 schools in 52 districts across the country from July until December 2019. WFP implemented activities for the treatment and prevention of moderate acute malnutrition in five districts of Khatlon and Sughd region from July until December 2019. More than 5,000 moderate acutely malnourished children were assisted in some 250 primary health centres. , WFP addressed the resilience-building component through food assistance for assets (FFA) projects strengthening rural communities’ resilience to recurring shocks and rehabilitating community assets. From July until December 2019, WFP worked on 21 FFA projects reaching more than 3,000 vulnerable households mainly through cash transfers. WFP also contributed to alleviating and mitigating environmental degradation and its consequences through climate change adaptation activities in support of rural communities that are dependent on land for their livelihood and food. WFP also continued mainstreaming gender across policy and capacity-strengthening activities to advance towards gender equality in the country.
