    <title>Emergency Food Assistance in Africa - World Food Programme 2015</title>
    <description>The World Food Programme (WFP) is the United Nations’ frontline agency in the fight against hunger. It responds to emergencies, saves lives by getting food to the hungry quickly, and works to help prevent hunger in the future.  In humanitarian emergencies, WFP focuses on providing targeted food assistance to reduce acute malnutrition and food insecurity, and to protect livelihoods. Project activities include: (1) distributing food; (2) supplementary feeding for children under five years of age as well as pregnant and lactating women; (3) emergency school feeding programs; (4) vouchers and cash transfers for food; and (5) food for work.  With the support of DFATD and other donors, WFP is providing emergency food assistance to more than 36 million people affected by conflict, acute food insecurity and political instability in select countries in Africa.</description>

    <expectedResults>The expected outcomes for this project include: (1) increased access to food assistance for crisis-affected populations; (2) increased access to supplementary feeding for vulnerable groups, including children and pregnant and lactating women; (3) increased enrolment and school attendance; and (4) increased resilience of severely food-insecure communities against further shocks.  The expected ultimate outcome is lives saved, suffering alleviated and human dignity maintained in countries experiencing humanitarian crises or acute food insecurity.</expectedResults>
