Created in 1961, the World Food Programme is pledged to fight hunger worldwide as well as providing emergency food assistance in a crisis.
One of the organisation's goals is the Zero Hunger Pledge, adopted by the international community in 2015 as one of the 17 Sustainable Goals for Sustainable Development, to end world hunger by 2030.
The WFP, a branch of the United Nations, is funded by voluntary donations from governments, businesses and private donations.
Almost two thirds of its operations currently take place in conflict zones, where it is calculated that people are more than three times likely to suffer from malnutrition than in peaceful countries.
It is currently estimated that one in nine people globally do not have enough to eat.
On any one day, the WFP estimates that it has 5,000 lorries, 20 ships and 70 aircraft on the move.
Outside emergencies, the WFP provides school meals to up to 25 million children in 63 countries, while working with communities to improve nutrition. Where possible, it buys supplies from developing countries to cut down transport cost and boost local economies.

The King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center (KSrelief) and the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) support urgent food needs of vulnerable people in Somalia
The United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) has welcomed a contribution of 138 metric tons of nutritious dates from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia through the King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center (KSrelief) that will be included in the emergency food baskets provided to the most vulnerable people in Somalia. An estimated 4.6 million Somalis are projected to face crisis-levels of hunger or worse by June as drought conditions, conflict and high food prices threaten to displace families, disrupt farming and increase humanitarian needs according to the latest update from the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) released in March. 'This support is a vital boost as WFP faces limited funding for our lifesaving operations in Somalia,' said El-Khidir Daloum, WFP's Country Director in Somalia. 'We are grateful for our ongoing partnership with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia which strengthens our ability to deliver nutritious food assistance at a time when food insecurity is expected to rise.' This contribution (worth US$388,000) will enable WFP to include dates in the food baskets of 200,000 people experiencing the worst levels of hunger in Somalia. Dates provide essential nutritional benefits and hold cultural importance. 'KSrelief remains dedicated to working alongside partners like WFP to provide assistance and relief to those facing hardship. This donation reflects our continued support for the people of Somalia and our shared vision of alleviating hunger,' said Mr. Yazeed Abdullah Hamoud, Director of the KSrelief branch in Africa. KSrelief works closely with WFP to address food insecurity and malnutrition in crisis-affected regions of Somalia. Since 2022, KSrelief has contributed US$8.5 million to support WFP's relief and nutrition initiatives in the country. Distributed by APO Group on behalf of World Food Programme (WFP).
