A snapshot of WFP’s main needs and funding requirements for Development
The UN Secretary-General’s Campaign — UNiTE to End Violence
against Women – has proclaimed the 25th of each month as ‘Orange
Day’, to raise awareness and take action.
‘Orange Day’ calls upon activists, governments and UN partners
to mobilize people and highlight issues relevant to preventing and
ending violence against women and girls, not just once a year, on
25 November, but each month.

2015 marks the 20-year anniversary of the Beijing Declaration and Platform for
Action, the most progressive road map to gender equality. World leaders met in
March at the United Nations 59th Commission on the Status of Women to take
stock of progress and commit to actively close the gaps that are holding women
and girls back.
This is also the year when a new development framework will replace the
Millennium Development Goals. The elimination of violence against women and
girls must be a centrepiece of the new development agenda.

Introduction
WFP is seeking US$343.8 million to fund the next six months of
country programmes and development projects in 34 countries of which 21 are considered to be least developed countries.
The level of bilateral aid to developing countries has fallen,
particularly for sub-Saharan Africa. However, at the same time,
countries receiving WFP assistance for development have taken major
strides forward by increasing financial and in-kind contributions
to their own food assistance programmes.
To date, host governments have donated 48.9 percent of total
contributions for development, meeting 12.1 percent of total funding
requirements for development so far in 2015. These contributions
were made possible thanks to parallel donations from other donors
towards full cost recovery.
by joining in a genuine partnership to reduce vulnerability, minimize
gender disparity and strengthen human resource capacity.
WFP/Joelle Eid
WFP is appealing to donors to complement this commitment
GENDER INEQUALITY INDEX
In many countries, women are the backbone of their families’ food security. WFP assistance through food for education, food for health, food for work and food for assets, food for training
and local purchases - support governments and communities in meeting the challenges of
inequality and hunger.

The food security and nutrition situation is considered severe when the Global
Acute Malnutrition Rate (GAM) is above 15 percent. WHO 2003
Despite remarkable economic growth, Cambodia remains one of the poorest countries in Asia. Cambodia is susceptible to
natural disasters, which can cause severe damage to the livelihoods and food security of the most vulnerable populations. In
support of the government’s zero hunger goal, WFP provides assistance to the poorest, most food insecure Cambodians
through its Country Programme (mid-2011 to mid-2016). The CP covers food-based safety-nets in education, nutrition, and
productive assets/livelihoods support.
Due to funding deficits, resourcing dropped dramatically from the originally approved US$28 million per year to US$17 million
in 2013 and to US$13 million in 2014. As a result, WFP was obliged to reduce its operations to 45 percent of the CP plan as of
November 2014. Over 195,000 children and their families have been cut out of the school feeding programme since
November 2014; food distributions under the MCHN component ended in June 2014; FFA activities have been reduced by 50
percent; and the cash-for-work pilot has been suspended. With projected resources estimated at US$13 million in 2015,
reduced assistance levels will continue until new contributions are secured.

The food security and nutrition situation is considered severe when the Global
Acute Malnutrition Rate (GAM) is above 15 percent. WHO 2003
In line with the government’s policies and the Multisectoral Action Plan for Food and Nutrition Security, WFP’s Country
Programme covers food-based safety-nets in education, nutrition and productive assets/livelihoods support. WFP is present
and operating in the seven provinces with the highest stunting rates.
While the School Meal intervention benefits from generous multiyear funding, the Mother & Child Health & Nutrition (MCHN)
and the Food Assistance for Assets activities (FFA) are both underfunded, preventing WFP from addressing vulnerable
people’s needs in targeted provinces on a consistent basis. Without forthcoming funding for MCHN, which works to prevent
stunting in children under 2 by targeting the first 1,000 days of life, the programme will have to be reduced by 50 percent.
An annual budget of US$2 million is needed to effectively implement MCHN in Lao PDR. Likewise, FFA activities need US$3
million annually to deliver social safety nets to food insecure populations and create productive community-based assets
aimed at increasing and diversifying agricultural production and improving the resilience of communities.

The food security and nutrition situation is considered severe when the Global
Acute Malnutrition Rate (GAM) is above 15 percent. WHO 2003
The current Country Programme (2012-15) reflects the dynamic transformation of Indonesia into a middle-income country. It
supports the government's commitment to attaining food and nutrition security for all its citizens, and is designed to enhance
the government's capacity to address food insecurity; prepare for and respond to emergencies; and reduce
undernutrition. The Country Programme has been considerably underfunded since its inauguration. Approximately
US$500,000 is needed to deliver WFP’s capacity development initiatives before the end of 2015. Failure to deliver as
promised will damage WFP’s credibility when it comes time to negotiate a new assistance portfolio. The portfolio of
cooperation from 2016 is being designed around the government’s priorities for food security, nutrition, and disaster risk
reduction, and is likely to feature significant co-investment by the government.

In 2015, WFP Nepal aims to provide 500,000 food-insecure people with food assistance through its Country Programme. At
present, however, the CP is facing serious implementation challenges due to funding shortages. The FFA programme,
supporting the government’s Rural Community Infrastructure Work programme (RCIW), has not received any funding in
2015. Of the requisite US$26 million, the programme is currently operating on US$2.3 million carried over from 2014. As a
result, 53,000 households lack access to RCIW employment opportunities and programme coverage was reduced to only 8
out of the original 10 districts. Additionally, the 22,000 participating households will receive only 15 instead of the intended
60 days of employment. The Nutrition Support programme, an important government partnership project aimed at providing
fortified Super Cereal and nutrition services to 65,000 pregnant and breast feeding women and children under 2, is still in
need of US$2.27 million to reach its population target numbers. At present, the programme can support only 16,000 people

Timor Leste has some of the highest rates of moderate acute malnutrition in the world. WFP, in partnership with the Ministry

monitoring, nutrition analysis and supply chain management. WFP and the Ministry of Health are currently implementing
projects in three districts. However, a shortfall of US$6.3m (66% of the project requirement) prevents the project from being
implemented in an additional three districts and limits the capacity of the Ministry to address moderate acute malnutrition in

The food security and nutrition situation is considered severe when the Global
Acute Malnutrition Rate (GAM) is above 15 percent. WHO 2003
Fifteen years of civil conflict have left Burundi in a state of extreme poverty and with high levels of chronic malnutrition
(stunting) which are exacerbated by climatic shocks that contribute to environmental degradation, reduced productivity, and,
ultimately, chronic food insecurity. Resource limitations are constraining WFP’s ability to support Burundi in finding
sustainable solutions to these challenges. Since 2014, WFP had to dramatically reduce the coverage of its food for assets
programme, which promotes resilience to shocks through sustainable land management activities, community assets creation
and rehabilitation. These activities remain suspended due to lack of resources; if greater funding is not made available now,
these activities are at risk of being further reduced or even suspended, which will have a negative impact on Burundi’s ability
to fight food insecurity and malnutrition.

The food security and nutrition situation is considered severe when the Global
Acute Malnutrition Rate (GAM) is above 15 percent. WHO 2003
(World Bank Data)
The Country Programme has four objectives to: (i) transfer core skills and capacities to devolved government structures in
order to strengthen preparedness and response capacities to address both short and longer-term hunger; (ii) develop
government capacity to manage and sustainably expand the national home-grown school meals programme; (iii) support
small farmers to access local markets – including structured markets such as schools; and, (iv) introduce micronutrient
supplements to ensure school meals are nutritionally adequate. As national capacities increase, WFP is responsibly and
systematically handing over WFP-supported schools to the government. The benefits and trust established to date would be
eroded if WFP is unable to maintain its commitments during this transition period – particularly during the lean season when
cuts would affect the most vulnerable children in the arid counties who depend on the daily school meals. This country suffers
from the lowest enrolment rates, low attendance, and the highest levels of food insecurity. Early commitments are required

The food security and nutrition situation is considered severe when the Global
Acute Malnutrition Rate (GAM) is above 15 percent. WHO 2003
Even though Uganda has significantly reduced its levels of hunger and poverty over the last two decades, not all regions have
benefitted equally. Uganda’s north-eastern Karamoja region is known for its chronic food insecurity, high levels of
malnutrition and poor access to basic social services such as education and health.
The Country Programme supports government-led initiatives addressing chronic hunger, disaster preparedness, mitigation
and recovery, and also promotes access to markets in the food surplus districts. WFP, in partnership with other UN agencies,
ensures training of small farmers in agronomy and post-harvest loss reduction, while also promoting education and health.
The School Meals and Mother and Child Health Nutrition (MCHN) programmes in Karamoja are currently being suspended due
to funding constraints.

(World Bank
The project, which combats child malnutrition and food insecurity, is implemented in 60 percent of rural primary schools
located in remote communities with high levels of food insecurity. The provision of hot meals has proven to be an effective
tool to retain a high attendance rate.
Insufficient funding would reduce rations and exclude some of the poorest schools from the programme, negatively affecting
children’s attendance rates and cognitive ability. Furthermore, without school meals, parents would be affected economically.
In future, the overall quality of education in the country will be affected and progress achieved on capacity development and
augmentation may be set back.
Additional funding support is urgently needed to ensure continuity of the programme beyond July 2015.

The food security and nutrition situation is considered severe when the
Global Acute Malnutrition Rate (GAM) is above 15 percent. WHO 2003
WFP urgently needs US$5.4 million to continue to provide relief food assistance to 616,000 people, rendered food insecure by
significant flooding in January 2015. With the government announcing an estimated 28 percent drop in maize production for
2015, the food security outlook is becoming more complex and necessitates an integrated relief and recovery response.
Lack of adequate funding in 2015 is likely to lead to an increase in malnutrition, particularly among women and children.
Shortfalls will also erode already-fragile livelihoods and push more vulnerable Malawians further into food insecurity later this
year. Timely and predictable contributions, will effectively mitigate the expected large scale food insecurity in the forthcoming
lean season (November 2015 – March 2016).

In Mozambique, half a million children aged 6-23 months are undernourished and 24 percent of the population is chronically
food-insecure. WFP Mozambique works in close collaboration with the government to address these issues through the social
protection and nutrition components of its Country Programme.
WFP’s social protection component supports and complements national government safety nets through food distributions,
cash and vouchers, and basic nutritional support. Since October 2014, a lack of funding has forced WFP to reduce the
number of people assisted through these activities by 80 percent. Starting in April, WFP will be forced to cease such support
entirely, leaving some 181,000 of Mozambique’s poorest people without vital food assistance.
In addition, funding is urgently needed to purchase Super Cereal to continue support to 54,000 malnourished mothers and
children.

In Swaziland, 63 percent of the country lives below the poverty line and 45 percent of all children are orphans and vulnerable
children (OVC). This project complements WFP’s DEV project 200422, which provides nutritious meals to young OVC
in 1,565 volunteer-led neighborhood care points (NCPs).
DEV 200508 enhances the effectiveness of 23,500 volunteer caregivers at NCPs by providing them with monthly food rations.
Caregivers— who often have little access to livelihood opportunities—cook daily meals for the children, and administer early
education and recreational activities.
Funding shortfalls will force WFP to halt assistance to the caregivers in May 2015. A suspension of the project will undermine
support to these vulnerable children.

The food security and nutrition situation is considered severe when the Global

WFP’s Country Programme in Tanzania, which includes School Feeding, Food Assistance for Assets (FFA), and nutrition
activities for some 350,000 people, is facing an imminent shortage of contributions. In June 2015, funding constraints will
force WFP to suspend the School Feeding programme. This will affect students’ attendance and their ability to concentrate in
class. For many children, WFP food is the only nutritious meal they receive in a day.
Additionally, WFP can only reach 25 percent of the planned beneficiaries under its FFA programme due to lack of funding. As
a result, communities will not be able to invest in key infrastructure to help them build resilience to climatic, economic and
seasonal shocks that dictate their long term food security.

WFP’s Country Programme in Zambia focuses on improving human capital through food based safety-nets, improving
government preparedness to respond to and mitigate disasters, and expanding market opportunities for smallholder farmers
by leveraging local food procurement.
WFP and the government work together to implement a Home-Grown School Feeding programme, reaching 1 million pupils in
2,200 schools. WFP urgently requires US$800,000 to procure pulses for the second and third school terms of 2015. Procuring
these commodities between May and July is crucial, as smallholder farmers depend on WFP honouring its purchasing
commitments and school children would otherwise suffer from ration cuts during the lean season.
An additional US$2.4 million is required for WFP’s capacity building efforts. Funding is needed to ensure that WFP continues
to play a key role in supporting government institutions with its nutrition interventions.

Despite its political and economic stability, Benin remains one of the poorest countries in the world. Stunting affects one third
of children and food insecurity reaches up to 29 percent in some of the country’s regions where the enrolment rate is also very
low. Benin is vulnerable to natural disasters, affecting the most vulnerable households. In support of the government’s effort
to achieve zero hunger, WFP plans to provide assistance to 150,000 beneficiaries through its new Country Programme
spanning 2015-2018 for US$16.5 million, to cover food-based safety-nets in education, nutrition and productive assets/
livelihoods.
The latter two sectors will be implemented in two of the most vulnerable districts, also defined as the convergence zone of the

As a result of continuing insecurity in northern Cameroon, families are fleeing and removing their children from schools for
their safety. A lack of funding has resulted in a suspension of School Feeding programmes, affecting 55,000 students in 250
school canteens. The next distributions are planned in June but the operation is currently facing a complete pipeline break.
Due to a lack of resources and stocks, plans to assist 27,000 pregnant and nursing women and children under five, will not be
activated, leading to a further deterioration of the nutritional status of these vulnerable groups.
This nutrition activity targets a total of nearly 210,000 persons.

The current shortfall will have direct impacts on the school feeding component of the Country Programme, preventing WFP
from providing assistance to over 900 schools in Chad, with dire consequences—especially on girls’ attendance. Despite a
recent contribution from the government of Chad, the available resources will only cover 29 days of school feeding rations
instead of 90 days. Also the gains made through the programme’s nutrition component, such as de-worming, will be
jeopardized, if funding needs are not met immediately.
Insecurity, a long lead time for the sourcing and supply of commodities as well as the upcoming rainy season will collectively
impact considerably on the availability of food items, which, in turn, will require immediate cash allocations to improve the
supply chain.

WFP is appealing for urgent funding to reach 127,000 school children in 10 of the 15 counties until December 2015. Available
commodities will run out by the end of May 2015 and school meals activities will likely be disrupted from June onwards, until
the necessary resources can be mobilized. This is a crucial time for children in Liberia who have only recently resumed their
schooling, in mid-February, after an eight-month closure due to the Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) outbreak.
The health crisis has severely impacted the education system. The lack of school meals will put additional pressure on
students, with a risk of dropouts and an anticipated lowering of parents’ motivation to send their children to school — a
situation worsened by their already delicate livelihoods, as a result of the EVD outbreak.

WFP is urgently appealing for resources to support food assistance activities for more than 600,000 beneficiaries until July
2015. School Feeding Programmes, food rations and Cash and Vouchers are all suffering a severe pipeline break. The lack of
commodities for nutrition activities is having a negative impact on children under 5 as well as on pregnant and nursing
women, while a rice shortfall is affecting rural development activities, putting the already food insecure population at further
risk. Given the low funding, the implementation of such activities is severely compromised and peoples’ vulnerability is
further exacerbated. In order to prevent the total suspension of these programmes, WFP is urging support from donors.

In 2015, in order to cover programme needs until the end of the year, WFP Bolivia has been forced to reduce school meal
rations. If no additional resources are available, WFP will have to close down this activity from January 2016. This pipeline
break would affect the nutrition component as well as the livelihoods and disaster risk reduction activities. WFP Bolivia needs
almost US$5 million (equal to 100% shortfall) to maintain implementation of the Country Programme in the period 2016 –

(World Bank Data)
With a budget of US$16.8 million, the Cuba Country Programme plans to assist over 900,000 people. However, as a result of
funding shortages, support to the vulnerable will be reduced and WFP will only be able to reach half of the planned 621,500
people. This will negatively affect school children, elderly people and pregnant women in addition to Cuba’s national food
production. This is critical at a time when the country imports on average 70 to 80 percent of its food requirements. The goal
to increase bean production by 70 percent will be hampered and efforts to strengthen the sustainability of food production
through social programmes will be compromised. WFP is currently working in 9 of the 18 target municipalities but only half of
the capacity enhancement activities planned will be implemented.

The food security and nutrition situation is considered severe when the Global
Acute Malnutrition Rate (GAM) is above 15 percent. WHO 2003
(World Bank Data)
The five year Country Programme was approved in 2011 and revised in 2013 to ensure alignment with government policies.
The total US$13 million funding gap threatens the goal of 200 schooldays for 1.4 million schoolchildren and the extended
school day (from 8am to 3pm, instead of to 12pm) for half a million children. As national education is a government priority,
the unmet need for US$4 million jeopardises these objectives, while undermining the quality and quantity of school feeding.
The funding gap for CP2 will be problematic from the second semester of 2016. Its impact will be serious as undernourished
WFP/Graeme Williams/MAG
children under 2 will not receive fortified food. This undermines government efforts to reduce malnutrition rates by 20
percent in two years. Overall, the total funding gap amounts to US$6 million. The funding situation for CP3 is critical, with a
shortfall of 80 percent for 2015 and 100 percent for 2016—amounting to some US$3 million.
As part of the resource mobilization strategy, the Country Office has presented funding proposals to the “Dry Corridor
Alliance” in Honduras (formed by the WB, USAID, AECID, CABEI, EC, Canada and others) for which donor support is
essential.

Over the next three years, WFP Nicaragua requires US$12.4 million to meet the food needs of components 1-4 of CP 200434.
If funds are not secured, the needs of vulnerable children, pregnant and nursing mothers will not be met. Women and
children targeted by MCH (component 1) are particularly at risk due to their inadequate food consumption. Since
micronutrient-enriched foods are not available in local markets, beneficiaries rely on WFP. If WFP programmes are either
halted or reduced, particularly School Feeding, WFP’s reputation is at risk because this is the government’s largest social
safety net.
Furthermore, some 157,000 school children in the most isolated and food-insecure areas, composed mainly of indigenous
communities with very low average schooling (3rd grade level), would get reduced school meal rations. The government has
announced funding shortfalls of 40 percent; the intention of WFP and NGO’s is to contribute to close the gap.

Twinning
In 2004, the Executive Board established twinning as a new funding opportunity for
donors to cover the costs of in-kind contributions. As all contributions must include
cash to pay for the moving, managing and monitoring of the donation, this form of
funding ensures Full Cost Recovery. WFP facilitates twinning arrangements to assist
eligible donors that are unable to meet Full Cost Recovery - these are mainly least
developed, low income and lower middle income countries. Twinning has been
pursued through the Emergency Donor Matching Fund (EDMF), established in 2006
with funds mainly from Japan that is now exhausted. Twinning has also been explored
in an ad hoc manner whereby the Country Office looks for a local opportunity or
approaches cash donors centrally.
Twinning is the most valuable tool not only for securing host governments’
contributions but also to boost market development and integration. It allows WFP to
enhance South-South & Triangular Cooperation, broaden the donor base and work
with a diverse range of partners.

FOCUS ON WOMEN
WFP ensures that:

Women and men participate equally in identifying Food for Work and Food for Training
activities on the basis of their different needs and priorities;

Women and men have equal access to benefits through these programmes - support
systems such as childcare to improve women's access to the benefits are considered;

A monitoring system is put in place to ascertain whether women are benefiting from
WFP assistance, improve their livelihoods and are empowered in decision-making
