Framed by WFP’s strategic plan for 2022–2025 and informed by analysis, evidence, lessons learned and experience, WFP proposes a five-year country strategic plan for Nigeria, to be implemented through the pursuit of five fully integrated outcomes: Under outcome 1, to ensure that people are better able to meet their urgent food and nutrition needs, WFP will provide lifesaving, hunger-reducing support, integrated with prevention and treatment of acute malnutrition, for the people and communities most at risk during and in the aftermath of shocks, including returnees, refugees and internally displaced persons. Under outcome 2, to ensure that people have better nutrition, health and education outcomes, WFP will pursue the programmatic integration of nutrition to ensure safe year-round access to adequate nutritious food and increased resilience for the people and communities most at risk, strengthening national capacities in the prevention of all forms of malnutrition. Under outcome 3, to ensure that people have improved and sustainable livelihoods, WFP will help to build community and household resilience to shocks and to open pathways to self-reliance through solutions that make food systems more productive, inclusive, equitable, environmentally sustainable, adapted to climate change and capable of delivering healthy and nutritious diets for all people. Under outcome 4, to ensure that national programmes and systems are strengthened, WFP will apply a holistic, integrated systems approach to capacity strengthening of national and local gender- and nutrition-sensitive shock-responsive social protection systems and programmes; disaster and climate change risk reduction and mitigation that foster anticipatory action; food systems strengthening; technical assistance for national and state-level home-grown school feeding programmes; and food security and nutrition assessments and analyses (led by WFP’s critical contribution to the cadre harmonisé). Under outcome 5, to ensure that humanitarian and development actors are more efficient and effective, WFP will provide mandated and on-demand services to the humanitarian community through the WFP-managed United Nations Humanitarian Air Service and logistics sector shared services via the emergency telecommunications sector and bilateral service provision from WFP’s Nigeria country office, so that the humanitarian community is better able to reach people at risk and respond to needs and emergencies.
