  • Guinea-Bissau Protracted Relief and Recovery Operation 200526
    !"#!$ % %&& $# "!#'!# &&! #%% Number of beneficiaries 157,000 (annual average) 23 months Duration of project (March 2013-January 2014) WFP food tonnage 11,419 mt Cost (United States dollars) WFP food cost US$7,411,514 Total cost to WFP US$15,294,464 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Guinea-Bissau is one of the poorest countries in the world, where the prevalence of malnutrition and food insecurity is persistently high. Political instability has led to severe disruption and suspension of United Nations development programmes with the exception of humanitarian interventions. The Transitional Government appointed by the military command is not yet recognized by the majority of the international community. Given this impasse, the United Nations country team has postponed the start of the new United Nation Development Framework cycle from 2013 to 2015, with the expectation that constitutional order will be restored in the meantime. Hence, the start of the WFP country programme planned for January 2013 has also been postponed until 2015. To bridge this period, this protracted relief and recovery operation is proposed to maintain essential food security and nutrition activities in 2013-2014. A rapid food security assessment in mid-2012 revealed worsening food security with households increasingly resorting to negative coping strategies, such as the reduction of the number of meals, and sale of household assets. The prevalence of global acute malnutrition is considered “poor” at 6 percent nationally, reaching up to 8 percent at the regional level. In line with WFP Strategic Objective 3 (“Restore and rebuild lives and livelihoods in post- conflict, post-disaster or transition situations”), this operation will support vulnerable groups and communities affected by the post-election crisis, with the aim to address malnutrition, strengthen human capital through education, and rebuild livelihoods.

Using a phenomenological approach to transnationalism and multi-sited ethnography, I explore different ways in which local experiences related to food production, consumption and exchange in the two countries, as well as local meanings of foods and plants, are connected at a transnational level. One of my key objectives is to deconstruct some of the binaries commonly addressed in the literature, such as global processes and local lives, modernity and tradition or competition and solidarity, and to demonstrate how they are all contextually and relationally entwined in people’s life- worlds.
