WFP's Executive Board approved an extension of Nigeria's initial Country Strategic Plan (CSP 2019-2022) until February 2023. The two-month extension allowed WFP to continue addressing emergency food and nutrition needs and building the resilience of vulnerable populations. It also provided more time to integrate lessons learned from the initial CSP into the succeeding CSP that started in March 2023. These included a heightened emphasis on holistic solutions achieved through strengthening sustainable local food systems. In alignment with evidence from market monitoring, Cadre Harmonisé analysis, and other data sources, WFP delivered emergency food assistance via context-appropriate modalities while also seizing opportunities to support climate-smart income-generating activities. In January and February 2023, WFP provided assistance to 1.2 million people on monthly basis. The assistance included unconditional food transfers, malnutrition prevention and treatment. WFP distributed 2,056 livestock asset creation and livelihood initiatives and provided 247,770 saplings of trees with nutritional and economic value to augment the recovery of vulnerable people affected by continuous shocks.
