Summary
In 2023, WFP’s initiatives in food assistance and nutrition positively impacted the lives of 1.3 million food-insecure people (51 percent female, 49 percent male). In all programmes, WFP prioritized the most vulnerable groups including people with disability. In 2023, approximately 169,000 people with disability (51 percent female, 49 percent male) received unconditional food and/or cash assistance. Working towards SDG 2, WFP effectively delivered humanitarian food and nutrition assistance to more than 350,000 people affected by crises and assisted 25,000 returning Burundians. Despite financial and operational challenges, WFP continued to meet the daily food needs of over 56,000 refugees in camps. To stretch limited resources but maintain uninterrupted assistance, WFP implemented 30 percent ration cuts for refugees from April to December 2023. The school feeding programme enhanced education outcomes [2] for over 667,000 students, augmented incomes for more than 4,500 smallholder farmers supplying assisted schools and injected USD 3.6 million into the local economy. Resilience-building activities benefited over 116,000 individuals providing households and communities with productive assets and fostering economic inclusion for 10,000 individuals of whom 71 percent were women.
