  • Emergency Operation in April to Provide Emergency Food Assistance to 62,500 People in the Five Most-Affected Districts
    1 EMERGENCY FOOD ASSISTANCE FOR DROUGHT-AFFECTED POPULATIONS IN THE GAMBIA Number of beneficiaries 206,000 Duration of project 5 months (June – October 2012) WFP food tonnage 13,169 mt Cost (United States dollars) WFP food cost US$6,910,868 Total cost to WFP US$10,778,577 A severe drought has led to a substantial crop failure in most of the Gambia. A joint post-harvest assessment led by the Ministry of Agriculture and WFP indicates that 520,000 people living in rural districts are seriously affected and need emergency food assistance or livelihoods support. Drought-affected populations face both reduced food availability due to their own production being less and reduced food access due to the loss of income from failed groundnut crops and high food prices. The Government declared a national food and seed emergency in March 2012 and requested urgent humanitarian assistance. The United Nations Country Team has already mobilized US$4.8 million through the United Nations Central Emergency Response Fund, for priority interventions including food security and nutrition, water and health. As an initial response, WFP launched a two-month immediate-response emergency operation in April to provide emergency food assistance to 62,500 people in the five most-affected districts. This five-month emergency operation will enable WFP to provide food assistance to 206,000 people in the 19 most-affected districts during the lean season, with the aim to prevent increased food insecurity. To prevent any further deterioration of the nutrition situation, WFP also will also target 17,000 children in regions with a high prevalence of acute malnutrition.

  • 20. Country Profile: Gambia
    20. Country profile: Gambia 1. Development profile British imperialists carved the Gambia out of French- dominated West Africa in 1816 with the singular goal of maintaining a nominal presence in the region. The tiny nation includes only the immediate area surrounding the Gambia River. The territory was administered from Sierra Leone and with very limited investments in infrastructure and human development. Gambia achieved independence in 1965 and evolved as a multiparty democracy led by President Dwada Jawara, who remained in power for three decades. In 1994, Yahya Jammeh led a successful military coup and established an authoritarian regime that rules to this day. Freedom of the press is a distant dream and there is no tolerance of political opposition.1 The Gambia is one of the most densely populated countries in Africa. The population is very young with nearly half of the population under the age of 18, and 45 percent under the age of 15. High rates of rural to urban migration have led to a concentration of people in the western part of the country and uncontrolled urban sprawl. Food insecurity is a problem and Gambia must import over half of its basic food requirements. It is estimated that one-fifth of children aged 5 years or younger are underweight. 2 Malaria is widespread throughout the country. The Gambia has made improvements in several social development areas and is expected to meet its Millennium Development Goals in universal primary education, maternal health, child mortality, reduction of malaria and other diseases, hunger, and access to basic amenities by 2015.3 At 57 years, life expectancy remains higher than the average for Sub Saharan Africa.4 Gross enrolment rate for primary school has grown at a rate of 15 percent a year, exceeding the goal of 12.7 percent.
