This country strategic plan will continue WFP’s direct implementation of programmes while increasing capacity strengthening activities with a view to laying the groundwork for government ownership of food and nutrition security programmes by 2030. WFP’s assistance for the Government in achieving food and nutrition security will be based on three strategic outcomes: Strategic outcome 1: Crisis-affected people in food-insecure areas meet their food and nutrition needs all year round. Life-saving food and/or cash will be provided to people affected by natural disasters, conflict and inter-communal violence. Strategic outcome 2: Vulnerable people in states and regions with high food insecurity and/or malnutrition have access to food all year round. WFP will provide food and/or cash-based assistance for vulnerable populations and technical assistance for the Government to enable it to enhance its social protection programmes, food systems and emergency preparedness capacities. Strategic outcome 3: Children under 5 in Myanmar have improved nutrition in line with national targets by 2022. WFP will contribute to increasing the availability of and access to safe and nutritious food for vulnerable populations in crisis and non-crisis situations to enhance their nutrition and resilience, and will support the Government in implementing national nutrition programmes and nutrition-specific and -sensitive interventions, and scaling up the management of acute malnutrition.
