The United Nations World Food Programme is the world's largest humanitarian agency fighting hunger worldwide.  The mission of WFP is to help the world achieve Zero Hunger in our lifetimes.  Every day, WFP works worldwide to ensure that no child goes to bed hungry and that the poorest and most vulnerable, particularly women and children, can access the nutritious food they need.

ORGANIZATIONAL CONTEXT

The ongoing crisis in Ukraine is leading to profound humanitarian needs. It is estimated that more than 4 million people have fled Ukraine, with many more displaced in-country.  WFP is currently undertaking an emergency operation to provide food assistance for people fleeing the conflict inside Ukraine and to displaced Ukrainians in neighboring refugee-hosting countries.  Assistance will be provided through in-kind food distributions and cash-based transfers.
