Announcement Description

ABOUT WFP

The United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) is the world’s largest humanitarian organization, humanitarian agency fighting hunger worldwide. The mission of WFP is to help the world achieve Zero Hunger in our lifetimes. Every day, WFP works worldwide to ensure that no child goes to bed hungry and that the poorest and most vulnerable, particularly women and children, can access the nutritious food they need.

ORGANIZATIONAL CONTEXT

WFP’s mission is to help the world achieve Zero Hunger by 2030 as per Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 2. It works to ensure that the poorest and most vulnerable, particularly women and children, can access the nutritious food they need.

Through the country strategic plan 2024-2028 will contribute to Sustainable Development Goals 2 and 17 as well as to strategic outcomes 1 and 4 of WFP’s strategic plan through the following three country strategic plan outcomes:

  • By 2028, systems are strengthened for people in Cambodia, particularly women and others most at risk of being left behind, to benefit from improved nutrition, education and social protection.
  • By 2028, food systems and disaster management systems in Cambodia are strengthened to better support the livelihoods, climate adaptive capacity and ability to manage shocks of people in hazard prone areas.
  • Crisis-affected populations in Cambodia are able to meet their food, nutrition and other essential needs during and after crises.

Outcome 1 focuses on WFP’s contribution to human capital development and outcome 2 supports climate change adaptation by enhancing the resilience of food systems and of people exposed to shocks and stressors. Outcome 3 represents a contingency plan for crisis response that will be activated only if needed.

WFP will achieve these outcomes in partnership with the Royal Government of Cambodia at national, subnational and local levels, United Nations partners, including the other Rome-based agencies, research partners, communities and affected people, donors and the private sector.
