In 2023, WFP reached over 617,000 people with direct assistance and indirectly benefited 17,900 people with assets, capacity and services as well as 2 million people through national policies and programmes. WFP complemented the National School Feeding Programme by delivering daily meals to 182,040 schoolchildren (49 percent girls) in Jinotega and the North Autonomous Region of the Caribbean Coast (RACCN, for its Spanish acronym). Additional school feeding was provided to 120,900 children (42 percent girls). WFP supported the early recovery of Indigenous communities affected by Hurricane Julia. WFP, in collaboration with national actors and local institutions, joined forces with two non-profit organizations to develop a comprehensive recovery plan. This joint recovery effort reached over 460,640 people (59 percent women) by rehabilitating school infrastructure, providing fruit trees to support nutrition and national reforestation efforts and supporting livelihood recovery efforts in partnership with the Ministry of Family, Community, Associative and Cooperative Economy for the most affected households in WFP's area of intervention.
