Laureate of the 2020 Nobel Peace Prize. 🇺🇳🌾🍛 The United Nations World Food Programme delivers food assistance to millions of people affected by crises.
📍#Mozambique: Through the water or from the air, WFP is using every means possible to reach nearly half a million people affected by floods.

Humanitarian needs in the country are skyrocketing. More resources are urgently needed. Learn more: https://ow.ly/5smL50Y64hM

🆘 #SouthSudan: WFP is calling on all parties to urgently de-escalate and allow for the safe delivery of life-saving food assistance to hundreds of thousands of people.

Without action, entire communities will be left beyond the reach of the vital assistance they require.

Since the ceasefire, WFP has scaled up food, logistics and cash assistance in #Gaza But winter conditions, displacement and destroyed homes mean needs remain immense.

Listen to WFP's Carl Skau on what must come next ⤵️

🔵 Every day, WFP supply chain is a lifeline — moving food and essential supplies to affected and some of the hardest‑to‑reach places.

✈️🚁🚚 From trucks and ships to helicopters, teams work around the clock to make sure assistance reaches families when it matters most.

📍#Mozambique is facing the worst floods in two decades:

🔹Thousands of families are displaced
🔹Access to communities is cut off by flood waters

WFP teams are rapidly deploying, aiming to reach 375,000 of the worst-affected people in the coming days. But more support is urgent. ⤵️

In besieged areas across #Sudan every WFP truck is a sign of hope. 📦🥣 Saleh, a father from Kadugli, describes what it means when aid arrives: lives saved.

🆘 As the brutal conflict continues, and without immediate additional funding, millions are at risk of being left without vital food assistance.
January 24, 2026 at 12:02 PM
In #Gaza there is hope - but the food security situation remains fragile.
 
WFP's Carl Skau explains why life-saving assistance must continue at scale — at the same time as supporting people's livelihoods, nutritious diets, and their path toward self-sufficiency.

Nigeria is facing one of its worst hunger crises in years, while renewed violence in the north forces millions from their homes.

WFP is responding. 🆘 But without immediate new funding, more than 1 million people will be cut off from emergency food and nutrition assistance in the coming weeks.

Last year, amid surging needs and despite access constraints, WFP teams pulled communities back from the brink, acted faster, and smarter.

Together with governments and partners, we can do it again. 🤝 Join us. https://www.wfp.org/

Before the war, roughly 40% of the Gaza Strip was cultivated.

Farmers like Isa and his family are key to building a sustainable, food-secure future in Gaza - but for now, they are barely surviving. 🔗 https://ow.ly/a3Tv50Y0iyV

📣 The world cannot turn the page on #Gaza

77% of the population still faces crisis-level hunger and humanitarian aid remains critical for survival.

WFP has scaled up life-saving operations, but more must be done to ensure families can move from survival to recovery.

Humanitarian aid has been a stabilizing force across West and Central Africa - helping families cope with conflict and shocks through school meals, nutrition and livelihoods support.

Now those gains are at risk. WFP’s Head of Analysis breaks down what the data shows ⤵️

The world’s largest hunger crisis shows no sign of abating.

In areas of #Sudan facing famine or at risk, WFP assistance supports nearly 1.8 million people each month. But without urgent funding, stocks will run out and leave millions without vital support. https://ow.ly/k1pB50XX8JQ

The world faces the risk of a dangerous and deepening global hunger crisis.

WFP Chief, Cindy McCain, calls on world leaders to help halt famine and stabilize communities in 2026.

"We can't end hunger on our own."

⚠️ #Ethiopia the refugee response is at breaking point.

Over 1.1 million people risk losing food, water and healthcare within weeks as funding dries up. ⤵️

"Everyone is now vulnerable."

Since early December, half a million people have fled escalating violence in #DRCongo's South Kivu province.

WFP is scaling up to reach more than 210,000 people. https://www.wfp.org/stories/wfp-surges-food-assistance-amid-renewed-violence-eastern-drc

In the Democratic Republic of the Congo and neighbouring Burundi, WFP and other humanitarians are grappling with soaring needs - and dwindling funds

📍#Burundi is receiving thousands of refugees fleeing renewed violence in eastern DRC.

WFP has reached over 70,000 new arrivals so far, nearly doubling the number of refugees supported with WFP assistance.

Without urgent funding, January could mean deeper cuts - or no aid at all.

In 2025, WFP’s famine prevention efforts pulled several communities back from the brink of starvation.

Yet as we ring in the new year, 318 million people face acute hunger in 2026.

This is a call to action. Ending hunger isn’t a dream — it’s a responsibility. 🌱🤝

Despite another year of immense humanitarian challenges, WFP assistance helped pull communities back from the brink and build resilience to future shocks wherever possible.

As a new year begins, families in Gaza continue to hold on to hope.

In 2026, WFP will continue to stand by families in need, supporting food security and the path toward recovery.
December 31, 2025 at 3:26 PM
There's enough food in the world to feed everyone.

Yet, global hunger is deepening: an estimated 318 million people face crisis levels of hunger next year.

Together, we can turn the tide.

This is what delivering WFP assistance looks like just 16 km from the frontline in #Ukraine with a constant risk of shelling.

Around 420,000 people living near the frontline face severe food insecurity. Humanitarian support is essential to help get them through the winter months.

🌱 From unfamiliar to unstoppable.

Hauwa now grows cucumbers, peppers & tomatoes year-round thanks to WFP greenhouse training in #Nigeria

Her harvest feeds her family, neighbors, and dreams. #ZeroHunger 💙
December 25, 2025 at 3:25 PM
While famine has been pushed back in #Gaza over 100,000 people across the Strip continue to endure catastrophic levels of food insecurity.

WFP will continue to expand its programmes to reach the most vulnerable, wherever they are.
December 23, 2025 at 3:02 PM
🚨An estimated 500,000 people have fled violence in #DRCongo's South Kivu since the beginning of December.

WFP is on the ground, but more support is urgently needed as the crisis teeters on the brink of a hunger catastrophe.
