It responds to emergencies, saves lives by quickly getting food to the hungry, and helps prevent hunger in the future. As the global lead agency for logistics and emergency telecommunications, WFP plays a major role in providing common services for the humanitarian community. It transports passengers undertaking humanitarian work, carries light cargo for humanitarian agencies, and carries out emergency medical and security evacuations. This project operates in Burundi, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Ethiopia, Kenya, Mozambique, Republic of Congo, Rwanda, Somalia, South Sudan, Sudan, Tanzania, Uganda and Zimbabwe. With GAC’s support in humanitarian emergencies, WFP focuses on providing targeted food assistance to reduce acute malnutrition and food insecurity, and protect livelihoods. Project activities include: (1) distributing food; and (2) providing supplementary feeding for children under the age of 5 years, as well as pregnant and lactating women.
