1 a message from world food program usa

The United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) is the largest humanitarian agency fighting hunger in the world today. Here at WFP USA in Washington D.C., we are dedicated to marshaling American leadership to end global hunger. We do this by engaging U.S. individuals and organizations, shaping public policy, and generating resources for life-saving WFP programs.

When crises hit this year in the Horn of Africa and elsewhere, WFP was poised to respond with emergency food relief—and WFP USA was there to support those efforts by channeling the generosity of U.S. donors. American leadership in the fight against hunger meant one thing: more lives were saved, more children were fed, and communities were able to grow and thrive.

We were able to witness firsthand the human impact of WFP programs during our visit this year to the Dadaab refugee camp in , where WFP delivered emergency food aid to refugees fleeing drought, and conflict in Somalia and other parts of the region. In the Horn of Africa, a cup of nutritious food has meant the difference between life and death for many families. Around the world, WFP assistance has been changing lives and empowering millions.

In Washington, we activated critical American support for global hunger programs. This year, we were pleased to present the 2011 George McGovern Leadership Award to two crusaders against hunger: Bill Gates and Howard G. Buffett. They provided vital support through their foundations to pilot and scale up Purchase 4 Progress (P4P), an innovative program that uses the purchasing power of WFP to buy food locally from small scale farmers, helping them break the cycle of hunger and and become participants in agricultural markets.

Working together, we are bringing WFP USA to the next level of leadership in the fight against global hunger. With your help, we are educating members of Congress, advocating for sufficient funding, and cultivating American support to address the immediate needs and underlying causes of hunger worldwide. We are grateful to all our supporters for helping us lead the way.

Richard Leach, Hunter Biden, President and CEO Chairman, Board of Directors

9 How WFP Works to Solve Hunger

Hunger is the world’s greatest solvable problem. WFP works to break the cycle of hunger through a comprehensive strategy that addresses the immediate needs and underlying causes of food insecurity.

With natural women and young children. disasters increasing in number by 400 Malnutrition during the first 1,000 percent over the past two decades days of a child’s life causes irreversible and the number of people displaced damage and is responsible for the by conflict and violence rising to death of 3.5 million children every 27.5 million, these programs are more year.

Safety net programs and build the infrastructure that help hungry, poor people maintain allows them to get their crops to access to nutritious food and basic life market. Half of the world’s hungry necessities like income and schooling, people are smallholder farmers, to prevent them from falling more surviving off marginal lands prone deeply into poverty. to natural disasters like droughts or floods. Investing in the agricultural sector of developing countries is essential to increasing the availability of food and ensuring sustainable livelihoods among the world’s poor and hungry.

11 Investing in Innovative Solutions

WFP works to empower local communities to build capacity for long-term solutions to chronic hunger.

WFP USA is supporting these efforts through funding for innovative programs that purchase food locally.

12 In Ecuador, where malnutrition and anemia are widespread, WFP is working with the government to ensure the vital nutrition of pregnant women and young children in a way that helps grow the local economy. The innova- tive model feeds children school meals with food grown by local smallholder farmers. WFP is building long-term school meals food security by helping farmers Through school feeding, WFP is able participate in community markets. to reach millions of hungry children worldwide and reap multiple WFP has seen great success in dividends while doing so.

13 Mobilizing Partners Against Hunger

WFP USA is marshaling American leadership to end global hunger by working with a spectrum of partners across government, business, private foundations and the public.

WFP USA works closely with donors to identify innovative ways they can make a lasting difference through joint strategy and action.

14 urgent response fund The recent rise of global food prices has pushed millions into poverty and chronic hunger. To protect against food price shocks, WFP USA established an Urgent Response Fund in 2011, made possible by a generous $3.2 million donation from GE. The fund will help WFP provide safety nets in Asia, the Middle East and North Africa, and other areas affected by rising prices, to help prevent crises. Scaling up existing safety nets, such as school meals and nutrition programs for mothers and children, can be a cost-effective long-term solution to helping families cope with food price volatility.

In Pakistan, the Urgent Response Fund was critical to helping families survive flooding and rebuild their lives. With GE Foundation’s support, WFP launched a relief operation within the first 24 hours of the flooding in Pakistan. Initially reaching more than 3 million people with emergency food assistance; the number of people receiving life-saving assistance grew to more than 8 million.
