UN World Food Programme (WFP) is the world’s largest humanitarian organization saving lives in emergencies and using food assistance to build a pathway to peace, stability and prosperity, for people recovering from conflict, disasters and the impact of climate change. WFP serves the people who are most at risk of going hungry or being malnourished. Two-thirds of these people live in conflict settings, the majority are women, and many live in hard-to-reach areas with limited access to services. Increasingly, WFP meets people’s food and other essential needs through cash transfers, making WFP currently the largest provider of humanitarian payments globally. Since 2020, WFP has been working to accompany people, women in particular, on their journey toward greater digital financial inclusion and economic empowerment, with the goal of providing money to 10 million women and their households on their own financial accounts by 2030.
