    <title>Syria Crisis - Food Assistance to Conflict-Affected People - WFP 2017-2019</title>
    <description>September 2016 – The Syria Crisis has undermined security and stability in the Middle East and has resulted in unprecedented humanitarian needs. Now in its sixth year, the conflict in Syria has led to the worst displacement crisis in the world. Millions of internally displaced persons (IDPs), refugees, stateless persons and asylum seekers in Syria, Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon, Egypt and Turkey are vulnerable to violence, food and income insecurity, health risks, and sexual and gender-based violence beyond. Canada is helping to reduce the vulnerability of millions of crisis-affected people, especially women and children, through a broad spectrum of humanitarian assistance activities across Syria and in refugee hosting countries.  GAC’s multi-year humanitarian support to this project in Syria is contributing to meeting the nutrition and food security needs of up to 4.5 million people. Project activities include: (1) distributing food assistance; (2) providing blanket and targeted supplementary feeding; (3) providing voucher-based nutrition support; and (4) supporting vulnerable persons through food for assets and food for training programming.</description>
