FoodSECuRE: Innovative Approach To Disaster Preparedness And Response

Climate disasters hit the poorest people the hardest. It’s estimated that by 2050, climate shocks could increase hunger and child malnutrition by 20 percent. As world leaders gather in Paris for climate talks, WFP and partners unveil FoodSECuRE, a forecast-based approach which would transform the humanitarian system. This new approach will release funds for disaster preparedness and response before the crisis occurs while providing the necessary funds for resilience building activities.
