World Food Programme (WFP): Its mission and projects in the Philippines

World Food Programme (WFP): Its mission and projects in the Philippines

Praveen Agrawal
Country Director

In emergencies, we get food to where it is needed, saving the lives of victims of war, civil conflict, and natural disasters. After the cause of an emergency has passed, we use food to help communities rebuild their shattered lives. Born in 1961, WFP pursues a vision of the world in which every man, woman, and child has access at all times to the food needed for an active and healthy life.
