Overview of the 2008 Programme of Work As the second semester of 2008 begins, the World Food Programme continues to focus its attention on some 80 million beneficiaries requiring food assistance. The total cost of 2008 activities is just over US$4.78 billion. Considering carry-over stocks and resources mobilized so far in 2008, and considering US$1 billion for prepositioning of food stocks for 2009, the total shortfall at this time of the year is US$2.75 billion. Programme of Work As at 1 June 2008 2008 2008 Needs Beneficiaries (US$ mill.) 2008 Total 2008 Mobilized* Shortfalls (US$ mill.) (US$ mill.)

Rising food and transport prices and erratic weather patterns require WFP to constantly re-evaluate requirements. In the coming weeks, the emerging drought in the Horn of Africa, the ongoing conflict in the Democratic Republic of Congo, the worsening agricultural situation in Zimbabwe will mean that WFP will increase estimated requirements for 2008. WFP Funding in 2008 In March 2008 WFP appealed for US$755 million to cover the high costs of food and fuel. Donors have responded overwhelmingly, with 31 countries providing a collective US$1 billion to-date. A historic contribution was received from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, amounting to US$500 million in response to the appeal. There has been generous donor support during the initial months of the year. As of 1 June, WFP has received US$2.2 billion from 66 donors. Our funding level is 117 percent above the funding level at the same time last year, largely due to the generous donor response to the High Food Prices Appeal, and to donor efforts to give earlier in the year and multi-year funding. However, only about 36 percent of total contributions received were multilateral contributions. WFP applauds donor efforts to provide flexible multilateral donations and contributions earlier in the year, which contributes to better planning and optimal use of the resources made available to the Programme. We encourage donors to continue their support fully to fund our Programme of Work currently valued at US$4.78 billion. 2008 Confirmed Contributions as of 1-Jun-08 - Top 10 Donors 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 USA Saudi Arabia Canada Japan UN CERF, Common Funds and Agencies Sweden European Commission Netherlands Denmark United Kingdom Sub-total top 10 donors $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ 569,370,885 500,000,000 163,148,354 117,591,471 115,941,803 72,937,577 71,118,650 68,080,378 50,479,875 49,820,787 1,778,489,780 Percentage of total 2008 contributions 81.6% Part I: Operational Requirements and Shortfalls 1 The top ten donors constitute a high percentage (82 percent) of WFP's overall funding. As of 1 June, the United States remains the largest donor (US$569 million), followed by Saudi Arabia (US$500 million), Canada (US$163 million), Japan (US$118 million) and the UN CERF, Common Funds and Agencies (US$ 116 million). Contributions from private donors have doubled, when compared with the same time last year, and amount now to US$25.4 million. Operations in Africa are receiving the largest share of contributions (67 percent). Countries in Asia and in the Middle East so far received 28 percent and in Latin and Central America five percent of total allocations. About half of total contributions were allocated to Protracted Relief and Recovery Operations. Emergency Operations received about 36 percent, development projects nine percent of funding and Special Operations five percent. The Immediate Response Account has received a total of US$33.8 million so far in 2008.

A total of US$1.2 billion is needed for these EMOPs in 2008, to ensure WFP is able to provide lifesaving food assistance to 15.8 million beneficiaries affected by conflict, insecurity, or natural disasters. Contributions of some US$693 million so far have been confirmed which, combined with carry-over stocks, leave a current global shortfall for this project category of US$392 million. 1400 1200 1000 In US$ Millions 800 600 400 200 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 EMOP 10693.0 in Sudan remains by far the largest EMOP, with 632,770 mt of food required to assist 5.6 million people, followed by the regional EMOP in the Middle East, assisting 1.1 million beneficiaries in Iraq and Syria with 122,807 mt of food, for which WFP has received a donation of US$40 million from Iraq. Another significant emergency operation currently underway is in Chad, where WFP is assisting 563,169 Sudanese refugees, internally displaced people, host communities and populations affected by the influx of refugees. Over 2.2 million people are assisted by WFP in Bangladesh in response to the devastating effect of Cyclone Sidr. The most recent large-scale emergency operation is EMOP 10749.0 in Myanmar, where WFP is aiding 750,000 victims of Cyclone Nargis. Contributions to EMOPs 2003 - 2008 Protracted Relief and Recovery Operations Protracted Relief and Recovery Operations (PRROs) comprise 54 percent of WFP funding requirements in 2008. This year, at current estimates, WFP plans to assist 43.5 million beneficiaries through 68 projects in 56 countries with over three million mt of food. 1400 1200 1000 In US$ Millions 800 600 400 200 The largest PRRO is in Ethiopia, providing assistance to 3.7 million food-insecure beneficiaries. Over 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 330,000 mt of food are required for this operation. Somalia is the theatre of the second largest WFP PRRO, which Contributions to PRROs 2003 - 2008 provides assistance to over 2.3 million beneficiaries. The PRRO in Afghanistan is the third biggest in terms of tonnage, with over 268,000 mt required this year, but the most significant in terms of number of beneficiaries, targeting over 6.3 million people in need of post-conflict relief and rehabilitation. WFP is implementing the highest number of PRROs in Asia, with 15 currently active operations, followed by West Africa, with 14 operations, Southern Africa, with 13, Eastern and Central Africa, with 12, the Middle East, Eastern and Central Europe, 8, and Latin America and the Caribbean, with 6. Part I: Operational Requirements and Shortfalls 3 Development WFP has 54 development projects and Country Programmes operational in 47 countries in 2008. These projects require US$470 million to cover the needs of over 20.5 million beneficiaries. 300 250 In US$ Millions 200 150 Resources required for development projects constitute only 9.8 percent of WFP’s Programme of Work, but will 100 enable the organization and its partners 50 to reach 27 percent of total planned beneficiaries, most of them are often the poorest marginalized portions of the 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 countries where we operate. WFP’s development portfolio includes school Contributions to Development 2003 - 2008 feeding, assistance to people infected and/or affected by HIV/AIDS, mother and child health (MCH), training activities (food-for-training) and rehabilitation and disaster mitigation through food-for-work. The biggest development operation currently implemented by WFP is in Bangladesh, which requires over 140,000 mt of food aid in 2008, in support of over 4.1 million beneficiaries. Other significant development operations are in Kenya, Ethiopia, India and Pakistan. Special Operations There are currently 31 Special Operations ongoing in 19 countries with a total value of US$270.2 million. The most significant remains Sudan, providing humanitarian air service to the Darfur region. WFP has two other special operations underway in Sudan. The first providing support to the United Nations Joint Logistics Centre, common logistics services and coordination, and support to non-food items and emergency shelter sector. The other SO in Sudan supports of the early recovery in the Southern part of the country, providing emergency road repair and mine clearance of key transport routes. 300 250 In US$ Millions 200 150 100 50 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 Contributions to SOs 2003 - 2008 Another complex special operation recently started in Myanmar, in the aftermath of cyclone Nargis, providing logistic augmentation and coordination in support of the humanitarian community. Other significant special operations are currently underway in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Afghanistan, Somalia and Chad. More information on WFP’s logistics efforts can be found in the special report on logistics and in the “Operational Priorities” section of this report. 4 Part I: Operational Requirements and Shortfalls Immediate Response Account The IRA is a multilateral fund facility that enables WFP to provide immediate food assistance, including logistical and other non-food costs in an emergency. Since its inception, the IRA has proved its value as one of the most effective relief response mechanisms. 35 30 In US$ Millions 25 20 15 The IRA continued demonstrate its effectiveness as a swift response 10 mechanism in 2008. For the first half of 5 the year, US$46.8 million was allocated to start and support 15 relief operations. 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 These allocations were made to seven Protracted Relief and Recovery Operations (PRROs), one Special Operation (SO) and seven Emergency Operations, of which four were immediate response EMOPs approved under the delegated authority of Country and Regional Directors. Through the IRA, WFP was able to respond quickly to emergencies such as the consequences of the cyclones in Myanmar and floods in Ecuador, earthquake in China and a new exodus of Chadian refugees in Cameroon following renewed civil strife in Chad and Central African Republic. The IRA also provided much needed up-front funding to avoid major pipeline breaks in life-saving operations in Sudan, Mauritania, Ethiopia, Zimbabwe, Tajikistan and Afghanistan as well as provided funding for logistical support in the emergency in Cameroon. Following the Executive Board decision to broaden the use of this facility, IRA funds are now playing a key role in several of WFP’s emergency preparedness efforts. So far in 2008, emergency preparedness and needs assessments for new emerging situations in seven countries were funded through the IRA. The IRA operates in collaboration with the UN Central Emergency Response Fund (CERF) ensuring WFP’s response to life-threatening situations and under-funded emergencies. The CERF continues to be an increasingly important source of funds for WFP in 2008 with in-house procedures having been developed to ensure that the focus of the IRA and CERF applications are complementary rather than overlapping.

To secure the replenishment of the IRA, WFP continued its efforts on increased advocacy, faster revolving of the account and securing new contributions. As at 1 June 2008, US$32.8 million has been revolved. This high level of revolvement was partly achieved through the easing of some of the previous restrictions on repayment, for example through relaxing bag marking conditions and also allowing revolvement to take place with contributions confirmed within a certain time following the original IRA allocation. The IRA balance stood at US$43.8 million as at 1 June 2008. Part I: Operational Requirements and Shortfalls 5 Part II – Programme and Operations Updates Update on the Recosting Budget Revisions In January 2008 WFP implemented a review and, where necessary, a technical revision of all the project budgets of its active projects approved prior to 1 January 2008. This review was a response to several factors that have had an impact on project budgets, particularly the recent marked increase in commodity costs, rising fuel prices and the devaluation of the US dollar. The review engaged staff in country offices, regional bureaux, from the Programme Design and Support, Logistics, Finance and Legal Divisions at Headquarters. There were 104 operations identified as requiring technical revision, which included a full review of the commodity budget, taking particular account of the type of commodities required for each operation, whether the project was expected to receive in-kind or cash contributions, and whether commodities would be purchased on local, regional or international markets. These factors also have a direct impact on transport and support cost budgets. Commodity costs for international purchases were updated using commodity rates provided by the Food Procurement Branch. Commodity costs for in-kind contributions were provided by the donors, and for local and regional purchases by country offices and regional bureaux. External transport rates were reviewed by the Ocean Transportation Service, using current information on worldwide shipping rates. Strongly rising rates were posted in 2007, in both the charter and liner sectors. Increased freight rates are a result partly of higher fuel costs, but also of increased trade volumes in general. Project budgets have therefore been adjusted for projects that are expected to purchase increased volumes on the international market, those that will receive significant in-kind contributions, and in cases where transport rates have not been aligned previously to reflect increased costs. Country offices reviewed and, where appropriate, updated project landside transport, storage and handling (LTSH) rates following normal procedures for LTSH reviews. More than 85% of WFP LTSH expenditures are in Africa, where operating expenses are under constant pressure from local increases due to inflation and exchange rate fluctuation. These affect LTSH, particularly at the port entry level through higher port taxes, levies and handling costs. Higher costs of fuel, tyres and lubricants also contributed significantly to increases in transport expenditure. These costs account for between 45 and 70 percent of running costs in the African trucking industry. Fuel costs alone account for about 25 percent of total LTSH costs. Relatively poor road conditions in Africa contribute to higher maintenance costs for truck fleets. Increasingly, governments impose axle weight limitations to prevent the deterioration of national road networks, and these further increase transport costs. Secondary transport and distribution expenditures per metric ton have doubled since 2005. Direct support costs (DSC) were reviewed by country offices and adjusted where necessary to take account of the new standard rates for international staff for 2008-2009; both DSC and other direct operational costs (ODOC) were reviewed in light of foreign exchange fluctuations. The value of the US dollar relative to other currencies has a direct impact on DSC and ODOC, because a significant portion of expenditures for these cost categories - including local staff charges, recurring office costs and implementing partner costs - are incurred in-country and denominated in local currencies. 6 Part II – Programme and Operations Updates Special focus – Looming Crisis in East Africa Drought crisis emerging in Horn of Africa and Uganda’s Karamoja region Severe drought is affecting many countries in the Horn of Africa, the situation is expected to deteriorate further over the coming months. Considering the struggle already faced by these countries to address soaring food prices, a humanitarian catastrophe could emerge shortly. In Somalia, a pre-famine situation is developing as the rains continue to be below normal for this time of the year. The problem in Somalia is compounded by serious pipeline breaks due in part to new regulation introduced in Kenya for commodity exports, which disrupted WFP’s procurement plan and forced us to purchase in more remote markets (such as Republic of South Africa) with the inherent longer lead times. Some 2.6 million people are now believed to be in need of external assistance – a 40 percent increase from January - including 600,000 urban poor. Cereal prices are two to three times higher than average; the cost of minimum food basket is double that of last year. In large swaths of Ethiopia, the food security situation continues to deteriorate. WFP relief beneficiaries remain 3.44 million people. However, recent assessments indicate that 4.5 million people may be affected by the emerging drought. (Final confirmation of these figures is pending). The unusually extended dry and hot weather from last quarter of 2007 to end of March resulted in widespread water and usable pasture shortages as well as significant livestock deaths in parts of Somali, lowlands of Oromiya, Southern Nations, Nationalities, and People's Region (SNNPR) and some areas of Amhara. The widespread death of animals in some of the hardest hit areas is threatening future livelihoods of households. Even though the rains started early April, they have not yet brought significant improvement in pasture availability for some of the areas, as it will take time for full recovery. On the other hand, access to water has substantially improved in many parts of the country following the rains, although improvement in water availability in the Somali, Afar and the Rift Valley areas of Oromiya and SNNPR is limited to only some areas that received moderate rains. Part II – Programme and Operations Updates 7 In Kenya, despite increased security following peace negotiations, hundreds of thousands of people remain displaced. These households are not likely to be able to cultivate in the main rainy season, increasing their food insecurity through 2009. High input costs and less-than-average area planted in the key crop-producing areas of the country likely will lead to a below normal main harvest for 2008. Additionally, rains have been below average in the primary growing areas In Djibouti, record-high and increasing staple food prices (36 percent above average) are exacerbating food insecurity in both urban and rural areas. March to May rains have been slow to start and are below normal levels, causing pasture conditions to become severely depleted. Global and severe acute malnutrition rates remain above emergency thresholds. The situation is particularly serious in the north-western livelihood zone. WFP was only able to carry out May general food distribution for drought affected people at half rations. Assessments are underway to determine the full impact of the situation. In Uganda, the drought in the Karamoja region persists. There have been delays in the delivery of food, resulting in pipeline constraints, and not all the 707,000 affected people have been reached by WFP. The resource situation is strained given other needs, particularly the support to the IDPs in northern Uganda, whose prospects for return and resettlement have been dampened by the failure of Government and Lord's Resistance Army (LRA) successfully to finalize a peace agreement. Local supply of food commodities is limited at the moment until the next harvest which is expected in July. Civil strife, livestock disease and below-average rainfall have caused food insecurity to persist for the one million people in the region. Results from a WFP/UNICEF/Ministry of Health nutrition survey confirms unacceptable levels of global acute malnutrition rates in Karamoja. 8 Part II – Programme and Operations Updates Logistics Update Providing adequate logistics solutions to WFP’s operations worldwide continues to be a key focus area in 2008. The Special Operations (SOs) programme category is designed to secure funding for the rehabilitation and enhancement of transport and logistics infrastructure with the ultimate goal of ensuring the timely and efficient delivery of food assistance. Consistent with WFP’s leadership of the Humanitarian Logistics Cluster, SOs are also being increasingly used to improve logistical coordination within the humanitarian community. With 28 active SOs valued at US$ 270 million as of June 2008, this category remains a key component of WFP trucks WFP’s emergency relief and early recovery strategy as well as tool for increasing the overall logistical capacity of the entire humanitarian community by providing support through designated common services such as UNHAS and UNJLC and the logistics cluster activities. The first five months of 2008 have required WFP’s particular attention on a number of extremely challenging logistics operations, where WFP effectively and pro-actively contributed with its logistics expertise, staff and assets to resolve logistics bottlenecks not only for WFP, but for all humanitarian actors. Responding to the political unrest in Kenya following the general election on 30 December, which led to the displacement of thousands of people, required large scale and well-coordinated WFP support to provide the National Red Cross, NGOs and other UN agencies with A WFP warehouse in Kenya transport and warehousing capacity. At the same time, an early start of the rainy season and above normal rainfall had caused severe flooding in the central parts of Mozambique. In order to reach the flood victims, WFP launched a helicopter and barge operation to overcome the challenges of inaccessibility and move humanitarian cargo to the people in need. With ongoing unrest, delays in purchase of fuel, late arrivals of commodities at ports, overstretching of the corridors of Douala and Libya and a need to pre-position 58,000 mt of food before the rainy season, Chad Country Office had to rethink its operation and establish a temporary logistics hub in FayaBarges managed by WFP carrying humanitarian cargo in Myanmar Largeau in northern Chad to ensure a faster dispatch. By increasing its transport capacity, WFP aims to cut half of the truck rotation time in the Libyan corridor thereby increasing the chance of completing the pre-positioning in time. Given the scale of the cyclone that hit Myanmar 2-3 May and the restricted access both to and within the country of Myanmar, WFP launched an extensive and full-scale logistics operation providing strategic airlifts, ocean-and river transport, road transport and warehousing all in support and at no cost to the humanitarian community. Logistics Cluster cells were established throughout Myanmar and in Bangkok to facilitate the logistics coordination of this emergency. The establishment of Humanitarian Response Depots (HRD) in Accra (Ghana), Dubai (UAE), Panama City (Panama) and Subang (Malaysia) together with the preparedness and response activities provided through the Global Logistics Cluster continue to expand WFP’s global reach and capacity to support the humanitarian community. Part II – Programme and Operations Updates 9 Early Warning Update WFP monitors natural hazards and socio-political trends, and provides latest information in the form of early warning updates. Below, a report provided by WFP’s Emergency Preparedness team. GLOBAL Multiple global impacts of high food and food prices Some 100 million people are at risk of being pushed deeper into poverty as a result of increased food and fuel prices. Analysis suggests prices will remain high for years to come, although increases may not necessarily continue to be as steep as recently recorded. The most significant impact will be on net purchasers of food, with the urban poor, rural landless, pastoralists and small-scale farmers most vulnerable. The impact of such rises will vary markedly according to commodity and economic context: In poor communities negative effects on health and education may be noted as households are forced to spend more on food to the detriment of other needs, while the very poor will suffer a direct and immediate reduction in food consumption. Higher prices will contribute to increased risk of sociopolitical unrest, with food-related violence or protests reported in more than 30 countries to date. High food prices are also likely to interact with seasonal and climatological phenomena, extending lean seasons and worsening food security in areas threatened by drought and other hazards. As a result, increased humanitarian assistance will be required globally at a time when increased food and fuel prices are significantly increasing the cost of relief operations. The Atlantic Hurricane Season runs from June to November. Peak activity is between August and October. The 2008 Atlantic Hurricane Season is expected to be above normal (likelihood of 65%), with 12-16 named storms, 6-9 Hurricanes and 2-5 major (intense) hurricanes. An above-average likelihood of intense hurricane landfall in the Caribbean is postulated by some analysts. Hurricanes in this region threaten the entire Caribbean Basin, Central America, Mexico, Colombia and occasionally Venezuela. The Eastern Pacific Hurricane Season runs from mid-May to November. Peak activity is between July and September. The 2008 East Pacific Hurricane Season is expected to be below normal (likelihood of 70%), with 11-16 named storms, 5-8 Hurricanes and 1-3 major (intense) hurricanes. Hurricanes in this region threaten Mexico and Central America north of Costa Rica. The North-West Pacific Typhoon Season has no official bounds, but most activity is observed between June and November. Peak activity is usually observed in August. Typhoons in this region threaten Micronesia and northern Pacific Island states, Philippines, Viet Nam, Viet Nam, China, Rep Korea, DPR Korea and occasionally Laos, Cambodia, Thailand, and Malaysia. The Northern Indian Ocean Cyclone Season has no official bounds, but most activity is observed between May and November. Peak activity is usually observed in October. Cyclones in this region threaten Sri Lanka, India, Bangladesh, Myanmar and occasionally Thailand. Where storms form in or cross into the Arabian Sea they may threaten Pakistan, Iran and occasionally Oman and Yemen. Threat of global pandemic The threat of an influenza pandemic has not receded. The H5N1 virus has infected millions of birds in much of Asia, Africa, and some parts of Europe. Two out of the three prerequisites for a pandemic have already been met. Public health experts fear a human pandemic if H5N1 mutates into a form that passes easily between humans. In 2008 human cases of H5N1 have already been reported in 5 countries, with a case fatality rate of 75%. Current cases of H5N1 have had devastating impacts on local economies in countries such as Bangladesh, where recent outbreak of H5N1 in poultry as resulted in the culling of over 1.6 million chickens. GLOBAL FOOD AND COMMODITY PRICES UPCOMING CYCLONIC STORM SEASONS AVIAN AND HUMAN INFLUENZA . AFRICA Emerging drought in the Horn of Africa threatens a new regional humanitarian emergency. Affected countries include Ethiopia, Somalia, Djibouti, Kenya, Eritrea and Uganda, particularly Karamoja. The drought comes at a moment when food security is already threatened by poor harvests in Kenya as a result of the political crisis, reduced production in northern Tanzania, and increased regional reliance on production in Uganda, itself still recovering from last year’s flooding. Impact of the drought will both compound and be compounded by rising global food and fuel prices, ongoing conflicts, social and political unrest and chronic poverty in the region. The combined, magnified impact of drought at this time may thus be catastrophic for affected populations, with early estimates suggesting a potential 8.9 to 12 million additional people requiring humanitarian assistance. HORN OF AFRICA DROUGHT 10 Part II – Programme and Operations Updates SOMALIA Insecurity, large scale displacement, a looming food crisis, disease outbreaks, and political instability in the context of dwindling humanitarian space. Spreading insecurity continues to severely complicate humanitarian access in Somalia. Checkpoints, security incidents during distributions, kidnappings and the targeting of humanitarian workers and assets will all continue to threaten humanitarian operations in the coming period. Some 3.5 million people are expected to be in need of humanitarian assistance by the end of the year due to continued insecurity and drought. Increasing food prices are likely to trigger further social unrest. Internal displacement and population movement from Mogadishu continues on a large-scale with 800,000 people having left the capital since February 2007. Critical levels of malnutrition remain in several regions with GAM up to 19.3% and SAM up to 3%. Malnutrition amongst IDPs remains a major concern. Risk of severe food insecurity, developing drought and potential flooding, insecurity in the south and east, regional instability and the possible outbreak of disease. As the current drought develops, food prices rise and the value of livestock diminishes, the food security situation in affected areas will continue to deteriorate drastically. Of particular concern are the Southern Nations, Nationalities and Peoples Region (SNNPR), Oromiya and the Somali Region, while Amhara, Afar and Tigray are emerging as additional areas of concern. Some 3.4 million will continue to be in need of life-saving humanitarian assistance, and this number is expected to increase. An additional 8 million remain chronically food insecure. Volatile security situation and commensurate risk of new displacement, rising food prices, returning refugees from Tanzania and threat of epidemics. Despite the agreement signed at the Goma Peace Conference in January, clashes and new displacements are still reported in North and South Kivu provinces. There has been a steady increase in internally displaced persons since August 2007 and WFP is now supporting 550,000 IDPs, mostly in North Kivu. Attacks on civilians, kidnappings, violence against women and girls continue to occur on a daily basis. Increasing food prices, especially in North Kivu, are likely to worsen acute malnutrition among vulnerable groups. Sustained food assistance will be crucial in coming months. Mass movement of populations remains a concrete possibility. The scheduled closure of refugee camps in Tanzania by end 2008 could lead to the return of a significant portion of the approximately 95,000 Congolese refugees. In South Kivu and the Ituri district, the security situation remains volatile. Fighting could resume as the Government seeks control of the eastern provinces. New displacements to the Maniema Province could take place if fighting continues between the Congolese army and FDLR. Threat of resumption of conflict, needs of large scale returnees from Tanzania, potential influx of Congolese refugees from the Kivus and deteriorating food security. Although an agreement on cessation of hostilities was signed 26 May, 2008, and some components of the Programme of Action are on track, renewed fighting has seriously threatened the peace process and the security situation is likely to remain volatile. An estimated 30,000 people already affected by the fighting will be joined by further displacements in the event of escalation. Chronic food insecurity, compounded by rising global food prices, is likely to worsen. Insecurity due to civil strife will continue to affect agricultural production in rural communities. The closing of additional refugee camps in Tanzania will continue as scheduled in coming months. Up to 100,000 Burundians are likely to return by end 2008, putting pressure on already limited resources. A deterioration security situation in the eastern DRC could lead to an influx of refugees requiring humanitarian assistance. Serious economic decline including severe food insecurity and disruption of livelihoods compounded by political volatility. Widespread food insecurity, resulting from flooding, inadequate grain imports, insufficient agricultural inputs, and rising prices of basic commodities will continue to be critical issues. WFP and partners have continued supporting vulnerable households in grain deficit rural areas. In January 2008 humanitarian agencies scaled up their programs to cover 4.1 million people, over 60 percent of the population in those districts receiving food aid. Events and potential instability associated with 27 June presidential run-off elections will warrant close monitoring in Zimbabwe and in neighbouring countries as the risk for potential increased refugee influx into Mozambique, Zambia, the Republic of South Africa and Botswana remain high. Darfur Displacement and disruption of livelihoods are expected to worsen as a result of renewed fighting, with significant numbers of people displaced within Darfur and to Eastern Chad since January. Significant population return is not expected during the coming months. Severe lawlessness, including fighting, banditry and harassment, will continue to negatively impact humanitarian operations and impede access to affected people. Temporary suspensions of aid activities, withdrawals from volatile areas, and possible restrictions on activities could compound the impact of seasonal rainfall, which will hamper access between July and September. A disappointing harvest has significantly increased food insecurity in some rural areas, especially Adila and Ed Daein localities in South Darfur. This has already contributed to an influx of people into IDP camps for food security reasons, which is likely to continue through the June–August hunger period. South Sudan and Transitional Areas Worsening tensions and insecurity in Southern Kordofan and Abyei threaten the Comprehensive Peace Agreement and may lead to destabilisation and further population displacement. Localized conflicts will also impact the humanitarian situation. The large number of returnees in Southern Sudan and Transitional Areas will continue to put pressure on ETHIOPIA CONGO D.R. BURUNDI ZIMBABWE SUDAN Part II – Programme and Operations Updates 11 scarce resources and basic services, in particular during the May to August hunger period. Recent assessment in Northern Bahr el Ghazal State demonstrated that food security is gradually deteriorating in the region. The hunger season began earlier than last year due to weakened livelihoods and harvests after the 2007 floods, armed activity and increased food commodity prices due to heavy taxation. The upcoming June-September rainy season is expected to be above normal, with associated high risk of flooding and related displacement and ensuing humanitarian needs. MIDDLE EAST Seriously deteriorating humanitarian situation, security concerns in delivering humanitarian aid. Despite a reported reduction in violence, the humanitarian situation continues to deteriorate with increasing vulnerability, deprivation and serious human rights abuses. Humanitarian access will continue to be severely restricted by the extreme insecurity, administrative and logistical difficulties. Given ongoing insecurity and economic hardship, many Iraqis continue to heavily rely on the Public Distribution System and would be rendered food insecure without it. WFP found that shortfalls in PDS distributions during 2007 amounted to nearly half the kcal requirements At least 60% of Iraqis do not have access one or more essential services, with IDPs in a particularly precarious situation. Further vulnerability due to increased food prices is expected if the PDS is not able to deliver as expected. Population displacement reportedly exceeds 2.7 million people within Iraq and another 2.4 million Iraqis in neighbouring countries. Displacement and vulnerability due to prolonged stay without access to work and income and rapidly rising cost of living will continue to affect the displaced, though some limited returns have been noted. The June 2008 referendum in Kirkuk will warrant monitoring, as will provincial elections in October 2008. Major humanitarian needs caused by continuing violence, restricted movement The political stalemate and the related security incidents appear likely to continue, with ensuing humanitarian consequences. The shortage of essential supplies, including fuel, could further disrupt humanitarian operations and weaken further the socio-economic coping mechanisms of the population. High food costs, up by 70% since January 2008, will continue to severely impact food security in Gaza strip. Declining health and nutrition levels among children and women in particular, as well as lack of access to health facilities will continue to be of concern. IRAQ and NEIGHBORING COUNTRIES OCCUPIED PALESTINIAN TERRITORY ASIA Humanitarian access, insecurity, refugee return, food insecurity, and possibility of drought. An increase in food insecurity is likely due to anomalous weather patterns throughout the country, as well as low regional cereal supplies and increasing food prices, which alone have rendered an additional 2.6 million people newly food insecure. Insecurity is likely to remain high in south-eastern provinces, including due to ongoing tensions between tribal groups and ISAF. Attacks and abductions of civilians will continue to jeopardize humanitarian assistance programmes. A risk of drought will persist unless good rainfall occurs before the beginning of the dry season in June. Return of refugees following the closure of camps in Pakistan will continue, though may be hampered by the closure of return routes. Return of refugees from Iran will also continue. Critical needs in the aftermath of Cyclone Nargis, continuing high social vulnerability, and threat to the major rice crop. Humanitarian needs as a result of Cyclone Nargis will remain critical in the coming months with at least 2.4 million individuals affected, including over 800,000 currently in need of food assistance. Increasing health and nutritional consequences are anticipated, with the situation is further compounded by the beginning of cyclone season. Emergency humanitarian access to the affected population, whilst showing slight improvement, remains a critical issue. Medium-term, food production is a serious concern in light of severe challenges faced in meeting the planting deadline for Myanmar’s main rice harvest (end June), which could impact food security into 2009. The situation is compounded by the risk of further typhoon activity between May and November. Assistance to 500,000 IDPs in Eastern Myanmar remains a significant concern. AFGHANISTAN MYANMAR 12 Part II – Programme and Operations Updates Part III: Operational Priorities In the next section, June’s “Operational Priorities” are reproduced. This report is published every month drawing attention to some of WFP’s most critical operations. Projects are chosen according to following criteria: (i) operations with a high profile; (ii) operations with a significant pipeline break in the next six months; and (iii) smaller projects from selected regional bureaux. The most updated version of this report can be found each month at www.wfp.org/appeals. 13 High Profile Operations Many high profile operations also face critical pipeline breaks in the next three months.

WFP has been present in Afghanistan since 1963. • • • • During the next six months, WFP requires over 49,000 mt of food to avert pipeline breaks for all commodities. The first pipeline break for biscuits is expected immediately and will affect more than 1.5 million children supported under FFE. Continuing insurgency activities have increased the number of affected IDPs and lack of resources will negatively affect resettlement assistance to IDPs who do not normally have other income generating activities. Heightened insecurity and poor road conditions continue to impede food deliveries in many parts of the country. Insecurity remains the main concern for timely deliveries, as well as access for needs assessments and monitoring, particularly in the southern, south-eastern and eastern regions. Insecurity and donor restrictions on the use of contributions by activity and area is limiting movement of food between corridors, and currently causing considerable regional variances between the needs of the six area/sub offices in Afghanistan. Export bans on wheat and wheat products by neighbouring countries is currently making purchases difficult and costly. As a consequence, some Area Offices will be short of food in the coming weeks. Of particular concern is the continued ban on wheat exports by Pakistan. On 24 January, the Government of Afghanistan and the United Nations launched an appeal for US$77 million to help vulnerable Afghans hit by dramatic price increases in wheat. The appeal aims to help over 2.5 million Afghans at risk of food shortage in rural and urban areas until the main harvest mid-year. The joint appeal by the Government, WFP, WHO, and UNICEF aims to meet their urgent and immediate needs. The WFP portion of the appeal is for 89,000 mt of food, valued at US$77 million, which is additional to regular PRRO requirements. Further contributions are urgently required to support these additional beneficiaries. 14 Part III - Operational priorities- 1 June 2008 Myanmar EMOP 10749.0 – Immediate Response to Cyclone Nargis 01 May 2008 - 31 October 2008 Pipeline breaks over next 6 months (mt) Pipeline information pending Resourcing (US$ million) Total Project 2008 Photo: WFP/Maisie Wu Beneficiary Needs 69.5 69.5 Total Mobilized 25.6 25.6 Shortfall 43.9 43.9 Shortfall % 63.2 63.2 In Myanmar WFP is providing a much needed emergency assistance to the victims of cyclone Nargis. The response to the cyclone includes an emergency operations and special operations. Through the PRRO WFP aims to assist people in Northern Rakhine State, Shan State and Magway Division. WFP has been present in Myanmar since 1994. • • • Resources for this operation are only sufficient until July. Of the US$70 million appeal, WFP still requires US$44 million. If additional donations are not received quickly WFP will be unable to continue general food distributions for these beneficiaries. Four weeks after the cyclone's devastating impact, WFP continues to make daily progress in providing life-saving food assistance to those so severely affected. WFP has reached some 501,000 beneficiaries, distributing over 4,300 mt of food commodities, including high-energy biscuits, rice, beans, salt, oil and ready-to-eat meals, to eight townships in and around Yangon and eight townships in the Ayeyarwady Delta: Bogale, Labutta, Pyapon, Kyaiklat, Maubin, Ngapudaw, Dedaye and Pathein. Cyclone ‘Nargis’ struck Myanmar on 2 and 3 May 2008 with winds up to 200kph, first devastating the Ayeyarwady (Irrawaddy) delta region and then the country's main city and former capital, Yangoon (Rangoon). The Government’s official death toll now stands at 77,738, with 59,917 missing. UN estimates that 2.4 million are severely affected, and of these, at least 750,000 are in dire need of immediate food assistance. Substantial damage has been caused to homes, roads, bridges, fisheries, farmland, nursery hatcheries, crops, and communications infrastructure. A significant danger of waterborne disease threatens to claim the lives of many more.

It is essential that all contributions be received on schedule, given the large quantities involved and the ever-changing access restrictions. A temporary pipeline break in High Energy Biscuits included among blended foods above - for the Gaza school feeding programme will be alleviated by the beginning of July. Included among 'other' in the table are dates, meat, fish, sugar and salt. The food security situation in the West Bank remains problematic due to movement restrictions and soaring food prices. Social hardship cases are most acutely affected as they remain entirely reliant on WFP assistance. Critical food security levels in the Gaza Strip are compounded by rising food costs and fuel shortages. WFP's operation meets the food needs of the most vulnerable non-refugees, contributing to the poverty reduction strategy by supporting productive activities and skills development. The PRRO also improves targeting and coordination, ensuring effective use of resources. 16 Part III - Operational priorities- 1 June 2008 D.R.

WFP has been in the DRC since the early 1970s. • • • • The project is facing critical pipeline breaks in most commodities, with immediate significant breaks in cereals and pulses, followed by a break in oil in June and salt and sugar in August. Deteriorating infrastructure has significantly decreased the country's food production even in those areas where security conditions are satisfactory. Households and major food importers keep food reserves at a bare minimum, because of the unreliable political and economic environment coupled with frequent lootings. Global acute malnutrition is at 16 percent in some parts DRC, higher than the average ten percent in other countries of Sub-Saharan Africa. Should no further contributions be mobilized, beneficiaries will be at risk of becoming acutely malnourished as many rely on WFP assistance. WFP is looking urgently for ways to mitigate the food shortfalls that have started to hamper food distributions to over 650,000 food insecure people in North Kivu. For the month of May, only 313,000 people have been assisted with only 3,400 mt, whereas WFP should have released a total of 10,365 mt for the targeted 650,000 beneficiaries. Most affected are IDPs who will receive half rations. Commodities are no longer available through regional purchases due to export restrictions newly adopted by some neighbouring countries (Tanzania, Zambia, Uganda and Kenya). A substantial budget revision to meet increased needs is expected to be submitted shortly. Final figures will depend on assessment results.

WFP also plays a lead role in capacity development. WFP has been present in Ethiopia since 1965. • • • • • The operation faces a significant shortfall of 38,714 mt of commodities worth US$32.8 million for the next six months, with immediate pipeline breaks in cereals, oil and blended food followed by pulses as soon as July. Urgent resources are required for the safety net programme particularly in view of the fact that beneficiaries in drought-affected areas are expected to be assisted by this programme. Priority will be given to the significant numbers of women and children identified as suffering from acute malnutrition to prevent them from becoming severely malnourished with increased risk of maternal and child mortality. The food security and nutrition situation in Ethiopia continues to deteriorate. A Disaster Prevention and Preparedness Agency (DPPA) led assessment has been fielded to Peoples Regional State (SNNPR) to determine the status of another 300,000 people for which the region requested assistance (in addition to 1 million who have received food in May). Amhara region also made a request for assistance for nearly 500,000 people. WFP requested an urgent high level meeting with DPPA to discuss the drought, including the need to respond quickly rather than awaiting further feedback from verification assessments as well as the need to issue an update to the 2008 requirement document as needs will continue beyond June Kenya EMOP 10374.0 – Food Assistance to Drought-Affected People in Kenya 01 July 2008 - 31 March 2009 Pipeline breaks over next 6 months (mt) Cereals 107,178 Immediate Pulses 17,710 Aug-08 Blended Food 15,515 Aug-08 Oil 5,927 Aug-08 Other 1,480 Immediate Resourcing (US$ million) Total Project 2008 Photo: WFP/Penny Ferguson Beneficiary Needs 375.9 65.5 Total Mobilized 365.6 43.8 Shortfall 10.4 21.7 Shortfall % 2.8 33.1 Note: From 1 July 2008 the project will be replaced by EMOP 10745.0 WFP assists 862,000 drought-affected people with general food distributions, food for assets and supplementary feeding (EMOP); up to 580,000 IDPs/affected by post election violence (EMOP); 1.2 million schoolchildren with hot meals (CP); 64,000 food-insecure people impacted by HIV/AIDS (CP); and 244,000 Sudanese/Somali refugees (PRRO).

Two budget revisions for people displaced/affected by the violence have been approved which has increased the caseload by approximately 180,000 to 3.6 million. The resettlement exercise by the Government has witnessed resistance by some communities partially due to failure to have promises of provision of non-food inputs fulfilled and for security reasons. This EMOP, designed to assist drought-affected people has been extended to June 2008 and will also cater for populations affected by post-electoral violence in the western parts of Kenya, in addition to the original caseload of 682,000.

WFP has enough resources to feed the existing refugee caseload in Dadaab and Kakuma camps until December 2008. On 15 May 2008, the Government resolved to make food security the top priority of the Government of Kenya (GoK). This followed a series of meetings between WFP and key government ministries in which WFP advocated for strategic approaches to address food insecurity, particularly in the context of recurring droughts, uncertain harvest expectations and soaring food and fuel prices. The Government further resolved to double the strategic maize reserves (currently about 350,000 mt) and import about 270,000 mt as a precautionary and intermediate measure as permanent measures to increase food production are implemented. WFP aims to maintain a rotating buffer stock in both camps to facilitate an immediate response in the event of a large influx of refugees or if floods render the roads impassable. During the first quarter of 2008, some 11,800 Somalis have sought asylum in Dadaab reflecting a weekly average influx of nearly 1,000 refugees. The trend is worrying as the three Dadaab camps are already very congested and services overstretched. WFP is feeding some 244,000 refugees in Kakuma and Dadaab camps; in addition to 25,000 host community members in Kakuma, through food-for-assets activities.

As a result, agro-pastoralists and pastoralists, previously assessed in acute food and livelihood crisis, have already reached the phase of humanitarian emergency. Maintaining a consistent and reliable food pipeline for Somalia is a priority for WFP as the number of people requiring food assistance is increasing, due to the ongoing conflict and consequent insecurity. In Somalia, a pre-famine situation is developing as the rains continue to be below normal for this time of the year. the problem in Somalia is compounded by serious pipeline breaks due in part to transshipment delays which necessitate a lead time of at least 3 months. WFP is working to procure food as earlier as possible in anticipation of this.

WFP has been operational in Uganda since 1963. • • • • • Pipeline breaks of 49,285 mt of commodities worth US$39.6 million are foreseen in the next six months. For IDPs living in camps, inadequate provision of food, shelter, clothing and clean water is of serious concern. Food security assessments and nutrition surveys conducted in camps and refugee settlements confirm that IDPs fully depend on WFP assistance until they are resettled. Should food rations be reduced, the nutritional, medical and socio-economic status of the beneficiaries will decrease as they have no means to establish adequate livelihoods. The floods that the country experienced between July and September 2007 destroyed gardens, homes and damaged infrastructure including roads and bridges. This left 380,000 people in need of food and other basic necessities. At present over 144,000 of these beneficiaries are still dependent on WFP. The recurrent droughts and ongoing violence in the Karamoja sub-region of north-eastern Uganda have left over 700,000 of its inhabitants unable to provide for their immediate needs. WFP continues to assist them with food aid. WFP provides food assistance to 1.2 million IDPs in transit sites and rural camps who have no other means of survival. There is slow voluntary movement among the IDPs in the Acholi subregion. WFP actively participates in the Protection Cluster, led by UNHCR, to plan the return process. 20 Part III - Operational priorities- 1 June 2008 Sudan EMOP 10693.0 – Food Assistance to Populations Affected by Conflict 01 January 2008 - 31 December 2008 Pipeline breaks over next 6 months (mt) Cereals 36,404 Aug-08 Pulses 75 Nov-08 Blended Food 1,695 Immediate Oil 519 Nov-08 Other 911 Immediate Resourcing (US$ million) Total Project 2008 Beneficiary Needs 707.9 707.9 Total Mobilized 550.6 550.6 Shortfall 157.3 157.3 Shortfall % 22.2 22.2 Photo: WFP/Debbi Morello Sudan remains WFP’s largest humanitarian operation and aims to provide food assistance to 5.6 million people, including 3.7 million conflict-affected people in Darfur and 37,000 refugees from Eritrea. the country programme continues to focus on supporting improved access to education and water through school feeding and food for work, targeting areas that are food insecure with low primary school enrolment rates, especially for girls • • • The EMOP has confirmed contributions for a large part of its 2008 requirements.

In Darfur, WFP has been unable to restore full rations in pulses and sugar since January while in the rest of Sudan, the option to preposition food at final distribution points is only possible until May. WFP Sudan needs substantial and immediate funds to avert any pipeline breaks during the lean season June to September and to avoid costly airdrops to communities that become inaccessible. The pace of food deliveries into Darfur has not improved despite the Government's assurances to increase the frequency of armed escorts for convoys.

If pipeline breaks are not avoided, WFP will be obliged to cut rations to people who have limited access to other sources of food. This will greatly impact beneficiaries in supplementary and therapeutic feeding programmes who already face precarious nutritional conditions. There is a great need to continue the humanitarian support to the refugees as neither the hostgovernment, local communities nor NGOs have the means to substitute the life sustaining basic food commodities provided by WFP. Any pipeline break will seriously affect the overall food security situation of the 26,500 refugees. An additional US$700,000 is urgently needed to cover the pipeline breaks for the next six months.

Breaks in the food pipeline are likely to quickly reverse whatever gains are being made. Pipeline breaks will also threaten WFP’s plans to help cyclone victims regain their livelihoods by supporting the rebuilding of roads, schools and other infrastructure through foodfor-work and cash-for-work schemes. Significant increases in food prices over the past year suggest that malnutrition rates before the cyclone were higher than usual. This means that they are likely to continue rising through June, probably at a more rapid rate than usual. Natural disasters in Bangladesh invariably presage a sharp rise in malnutrition owing to reduced food availability, higher prices, diminished purchasing power and the spread of disaster-induced diseases. Even in non-disaster years, the rate of moderate wasting among children under 5 years prior to the main May/June harvest frequently exceeds the emergency threshold of 15 percent. A price comparison between pre and post cyclone reveals an average price increase of 33 percent for rice and four percent for atta (whole meal flour). Since this comparison the prices have further increased to between 26 and 41 percent compared to December 2007. This further worsens the food security situation and malnutrition issue.

If no new resources are confirmed immediately, the school feeding programme will be suspended, followed by a suspension of TB and HIV activities depending on the availability of timely donations. WFP has already cut its beneficiaries by 20 percent, but even at a reduced level the price increase is making it very difficult for WFP to maintain a sustainable pipeline. If there is no additional funding identified, the immediate pipeline breaks, caused by the rice price surge, will force WFP to further suspend distributions to over 450,000 students, followed by 90,000 beneficiaries under TB and HIV activities. During earlier pipeline breaks beneficiaries have resorted to difficult coping strategies such as selling of household assets (rice fields), borrowing at high interest rates, withdrawing children from school, migrating and altering diet/reducing number of meals.

WFP has been in Nepal since 1967, and has provided food aid to the Bhutanese refugees since 1992. • • • New contributions are required immediately for this operation in order to avoid shortfalls for all commodities starting in July and August and repay outstanding advances. The food security situation is extremely critical across Nepal due to increasing fuel prices, fuel shortages and transportation strikes. Due to this mix of factors, it is extremely difficult to ensure that the Bhutanese refugees receive complete food rations on time. If no further donations are confirmed, food rations will be reduced. The Bhutanese refugees rely 100 percent on the WFP food basket, and have no other food sources or coping mechanisms. After years of continuous support, any pipeline break will have negative implications on camp security. A pipeline break will also seriously affect the refugees' nutritional status, as they have no means to complement the WFP food ration.

The well being of vulnerable food insecure families is likely to deteriorate, particularly among those most impacted by conflict and recurrent natural disasters. So far, the activities of the PRRO have begun in 22 of the planned 25 districts. The significant lack of resources has severely restricted the number of targeted beneficiaries receiving food.

Taking into consideration the usual lead-time there is also an urgent need to cover anticipated shortfalls for wheat and pulses in August. If no additional funds are provided, WFP will have to provide food in selected areas only and planned activities will be disrupted immediately. Furthermore, more than 120,000 beneficiaries risk not receiving their monthly entitlements for food-for-work and training activities. Therefore, a pipeline break will seriously minimise the effects of WFP's effort to improve the livelihoods of the earthquake-affected population.

The operation is still facing severe shortfalls for all commodities. With shortfalls starting this month the food-for-education activity will come to an abrupt halt and WFP will have limited ability to respond in the case of new population displacements. New contributions will enable WFP to assist displaced people, address the worrying levels of malnutrition, sustain increased school attendance and fully support the peace process. WFP's food security assessment mission in Mindanao indicates that over 60 percent of assessed households have very poor access to food and 30 percent of households are taking lifethreatening risks to meet daily food needs. Due to rising prices, a further deterioration in food security is expected as the majority of the population in conflict-affected areas purchase the bulk of their food on the market. This may lead to a future adjustment of the WFP operation.

WFP has been present in Sri Lanka since 1968. • • • • Due to a failed rice harvest caused by unusual heavy rains, this operation is severely impacted by rising food prices (rice prices increased by 77 percent on the local market compared to last year). Additional funding is required for immediate procurement of 17,000 mt of food to cover the pipeline breaks and repay outstanding loans. If no additional funds are received, food rations will have to be reduced for VGF and FFE. The lack of resources and continuous pipeline breaks of the staple food (rice) has seriously affected this operation. WFP has already suspended FFW activities for 2008, and is also temporarily adjusting the VGF ration scale, which will reduce the nutritional value from 1,900 to 1,665 kcal per person per day (270,000 people affected). In addition, WFP has not been able to add oil and sugar to the MCHN ration due to the shortfalls (275,000 beneficiaries) and the new school term is starting with no distribution of rice. These measures are expected to be temporary until adequate resources are committed. The displaced populations, who are staying in camps, with host families or living out in the open, have lost their livelihoods and are almost completely dependent on food assistance. With little prospect of returning home and few other sources of food assistance, they are suffering from pipeline breaks in WFP food rations, not least from the pipeline break in rice. Traditional coping strategies (reducing portions, selling/pawning of jewellery, relying on less preferred foods) are rapidly being exhausted. Therefore, WFP food rations are critical to prevent vulnerable families from resorting to more damaging strategies like cutting meals and migrating in search of food.

For the start up of the operation in July 2008, resources of US$2 million are urgently needed to cover immediate pipeline breaks for rice and beans and ensure distributions until October. Considering the long lead time for commodity arrivals in Timor-Leste, additional donor contributions are also needed to cover expected pipeline breaks for the remaining commodities over the next 6 months. Both food security and the nutritional status of vulnerable groups has deteriorated during 2008 due to the effects of floods, locusts and landslides. A break in supplies will further exacerbate the already high malnutrition rates among these groups. If new resources are not confirmed WFP will have to provide incomplete rations.

Newly displaced are coming in increasing numbers to the WFP distribution office, where staff explain food cannot be provided due to shortages and transport delays caused by repeated blockages along the Sana’a - Sa’ada road. Access remains limited to only around 50,000 IDPs due to the continuous fighting. • • West Africa – Regional Bureau OMD Burkina Faso PRRO 10541.0 – Reversing Growing Undernutrition in Food Insecure Regions 01 January 2007 - 31 December 2008 Pipeline breaks over next 6 months (mt) Cereals 501 Sep-08 Pulses 45 Oct-08 Blended Food 1,155 Sep-09 Oil n/a n/a Other 12 Immediate Resourcing (US$ million) Total Project 2008 Photo: WFP/Stoffels Eva Beneficiary Needs 24.0 14.7 Total Mobilized 14.4 13.8 Shortfall 9.6 0.9 Shortfall % 39.9 6.2 WFP provides food assistance to primary school children, adolescent girls and women through school feeding/literacy programmes, and seeks to increase food production and protect the livelihoods of rural populations through food-for-asset activities.

If these current shortfalls are not resolved, they will have a negative impact on the nutritional recovery of children affected by moderate malnutrition and targeted vulnerable pregnant and lactating women. Without assistance, targeted vulnerable groups may experience increased severe malnutrition and low birth weight. This operation aims to stop and reverse the current malnutrition trend in this region. Balanced food rations are provided by WFP to reduce levels of moderate acute malnutrition among children under the age of 3 years and pregnant and lactating women in five priority regions. Furthermore, this operation collaborates with the Ministry of Health, UNICEF and various NGOs. It will enhance the Government's capacity to implement the National Plan of Action for Nutrition, particularly those aspects related to strengthening household food security and the setting up of nutrition surveillance system.

Under the country programme, WFP provides food assistance to primary schools, contributes to food security for at-risk populations by setting up community cereal granaries, and improves rural infrastructure through food-for-work activities. WFP is assisting over 189,000 people in Cameroon, and targets the three poor northern provinces. WFP has been present in Cameroon since 1978. • • • • The project faces immediate pipeline breaks in all commodities. First distributions under this new EMOP were scheduled to start in April 2008 but were delayed until the end of May due to a lack of resources. The May distribution included reduced rations of sugar and pulses. The pipeline is relatively empty with shortfalls occurring every month for the rest of the year. More funds are therefore urgently needed. The impact on beneficiaries of nutrition activities would result in increased acute malnutrition rates among vulnerable refugee populations of under-5 children and pregnant and lactating women, thus impacting the overall nutritional status of the refugee camps. In addition, local populations will be the most affected because the more vulnerable refugee populations will be prioritized over targeted vulnerable populations. All beneficiaries are at risk of hunger during the June – September lean season. Local purchases are currently underway to cover some of the short-term needs of the project. WFP is looking to make other local purchases in order to reduce the lead time, even though the price may be higher than the international market. In April, this new EMOP replaced two previous operations and covers food aid needs for refugees from the Central African Republic and new refugees who arrived after the unrest in Chad earlier this year. In addition to life-saving assistance for refugees, the project will also provide supplementary feeding to malnourished refugee children and pregnant and lactating women.

The project has had considerable food shortages since January 2008 that has resulted in the suspension of mother and child health and HIV/AIDS activities since January. In addition, planning for food assistance for a new influx of 11,000 refugees from the Central African Republic (CAR.) was added in March. Significant shortfalls are expected in cereals, pulses, CSB and oil towards the end of the year. Additional resources are urgently required to ensure continued assistance for the CAR refugees and local populations. Assistance during the lean season (May/June) will be maintained through seed protection programmes in Yaroungou refugee camp. In addition, WFP is providing assistance to the most vulnerable populations in Yaroungou camp for six months.

The PRRO has been facing serious pipeline breaks since January 2008 which has resulted in some activities being suspended. These include assistance for: 3,600 volunteer teachers and their families to keep schools open in the north of the country, 28,500 vulnerable food-for-training beneficiaries, 5,300 poor farmers to receive seed protection and 17,000 IDPs. Rations were reduced for 580,000 children in school canteens and 10,000 food-for-work beneficiaries. In April, more activities were suspended. This will result in the worsening of the situation of vulnerable mothers and children under 5, as well as HIV-affected people. A fall in school attendance rates is expected, as well as grave impact on the FAO seeds distribution, as beneficiaries risk consuming the seeds distributed without a WFP seed protection ration. The impact is expected to affect food security at the household level, especially during the lean season. The rising food prices affect food access more than ever before, pushing the estimated 1 million at risk (according to the latest WFP food security assessment) into food insecurity. There is a very urgent need to mobilize new contributions to address the increasing food insecurity.

A total of 7,290 refugees will be affected by the shortfall that will lead to reduced household food consumption. If the shortfall continues, it will also be impossible to assist the host communities who are vulnerable and live in the most food insecure areas of the country. The latter are already hit hard by a poor harvest and the current soaring commodity prices. It is crucial that acceptable levels of household food security and the prevention of a deterioration in health status are maintained. This project is currently undergoing a budget revision for an extension beyond the end date of September 2008 and up to March 2009.

These shortfalls are aggravated by the fact that 1,750 mt of maize, which is expected from Burkina Faso, has been refused an export permit and it is unlikely that this consignment will arrive in time for distribution. If urgent pledges are not received soon, small farmers and their immediate families made foodinsecure by last years floods and drought may not have enough food to sustain their productive activities, malnourished women and children will not receive micronutrient rich supplements and seeds distributed by partner agencies to small scale farmers may be consumed, rather than planted. The overall effect of a lack of provision of food assistance at this time will be a decreased resilience for these vulnerable populations. 266,000 people in this region are severely food insecure. A recent budget revision through till the end of November, 2008, will allow support to beneficiaries until the start of the harvest season.

WFP will likely substitute pulses in place of CSB, beginning in June, to save the CSB for the most vulnerable for as long as possible until the strain on the pipeline eases. Resource shortfalls would disrupt the provision of take-home rations for girls and hot meals to 450,000 school children, stifling the key strategies for reducing the gender gap in education and boosting total school enrolment. Shortfalls will also affect agriculture and infrastructure works which benefit returnees and host communities, thereby derailing rural self-reliance efforts. • • Niger PRRO 10611.0 – Improving the Nutritional Status and Reinforcing Livelihoods of Vulnerable Populations in Niger 01 October 2007 - 30 September 2009 Pipeline breaks over next 6 months (mt) Cereals 3,482 Immediate Pulses 71 Immediate Blended Food 373 Oct-08 Oil 1 Oct-08 Other 174 Immediate Resourcing (US$ million) Total Project 2008 Beneficiary Needs 53.8 25.7 Total Mobilized 25.2 23.1 Shortfall 28.6 2.6 Shortfall % 53.1 10.1 Photo: WFP/Judith Schuler WFP supports the creation of productive assets, the prevention/reduction of food crises, basic education, and the fight against HIV/AIDS.

Contributions are needed within the next few weeks in order to procure sugar, which is Part III - Operational priorities- 1 June 2008 36 • • • required for nutritional activities. Sugar cannot be purchased locally, and international purchases require a 4 month lead time. The shortfall in cereals is delaying the start of cereal bank activities. As a result of this shortfall, WFP will be unable to support targeted food-insecure villages in the beginning of the lean season as planned, which will increase vulnerability for beneficiaries already facing malnutrition. Principal reasons for the late arrivals of cereals are late contributions, supplier defaults related to high price of cereals, and export bans in neighbouring Burkina Faso. This project focuses on nutritional activities for children and mothers to confront high malnutrition rates. Rural development activities include cereal banks and food for training. One of the objectives of the PRRO is to provide capacity-building for the Government and the National Food Security Mechanism on the prevention and management of food crises.

Moreover, the programme supporting the resettlement of refugees, returnees and IDPs will not be implemented and family rations under FFW activities will not be distributed as planned from August to October 2008. In addition, WFP will not be able to implement malnutrition-prevention activities or support awareness-raising sessions on sound HIV prevention, dietary, nutritional, hygiene and health practices. Senegal’s population has been hit particularly hard by high fuel and commodity prices. In light of the upcoming lean season and expected increased needs, immediate resources are needed.

In schools, shortfalls will lead to poor attendance and short-term hunger. For vulnerable women and children, the impact of the shortages will be severe as the lack of nutrition activities will lead to the erosion of gains made in terms of nutritional recovery of the beneficiaries. This project focuses on the southern and eastern provinces, which were the last regions to be resettled after the end of the war. It supports populations in six districts in areas most affected by the war that hosted refugees or were the last areas to be resettled and enter into recovery phase.

A six-month returnee ration will serve the dual purpose of promoting return and reintegration of people into their original communities and the food-for-work programme assists to achieve self reliance. To ensure the capacity of this activity, funding is needed to secure the provision of nutrition and the ability of beneficiaries to establish an income base. Military confrontations between the army and the Front National de Liberation (FNL, last remaining rebel group) in and around the capital Bujumbura resumed in mid-April. Heavy artillery including helicopter bombings used during regular attacks has also been reported in Bujumbura rural province. Security is deteriorating progressively in four provinces (Bujumbura rural, Bubanza, Cibitoke and Makamba). UN missions are temporarily suspended in these areas. WFP missions to further areas are maintained at a minimum An estimated 30,000 people have fled their homes as a result of conflict. Discussions between Government and the international community are underway to assess humanitarian needs. WFP, working through the Burundian Red Cross, would in the immediate term provide a two-week provision of emergency assistance, subject to acceptable security conditions. Alternative delivery options are being considered. The impact of soaring food prices on Burundi is evident through the frequent use of coping strategies, such as reduced quality and quantity as well as reduced number of meals. WFP’s ongoing, ad-hoc rapid assessments and market analysis are looking at dimensions, causes, impact on household levels, in both rural and urban settings. Results will be instrumental in guiding WFP's response strategy.

With an increased influx of refugees to Ethiopia from Eritrea and Somalia, the break in the food pipeline will result in ration cuts, should no further contributions be mobilized. Refugees in Ethiopia have very limited coping mechanisms, and the food provided by WFP is close to 100 percent of their food source. Ration cuts therefore mean that the refugees will receive less than the needed 2100 Kcal per day, and the risk of increased malnutrition rates is imminent. From record high malnutrition rates in 2005, global acute malnutrition rates are now down to below 10 percent in most camps. A set-back on this would have serious consequences for the lives and well being of the refugees. The refugee operation assists Sudanese, Eritrean and Somali refugees living in camps. Refugees are provided with basic monthly food rations. In addition, supplementary food is provided to malnourished children and other vulnerable people in the camps on the basis of their nutritional status. Refugee children attending primary schools are provided with school feeding rations. Some refugees and members of the local hosting community can also benefit from participating in food-for-assets activities implemented in selected refugee camps.

Due to under-funding, severely affecting the new PRRO 10586.0, Food-For-Assets (FFA) activities are being implemented at 14 percent of the initial plan. WFP is implementing FFA activities in six districts. The total tonnage required for these activities is 660 mt per month. Currently the total number of beneficiaries being targeted under FFA is 90,750 (16,500 households). WFP is working in collaboration with the Department of Disaster Management Affairs in responding to the immediate food needs of the flood affected people. WFP partners will work together with the District Commissioners’ offices to manage beneficiary targeting and food distributions at district level. This project focuses on disaster risk reduction and protecting the livelihoods of food-insecure and vulnerable people. WFP assistance addresses the food needs of households enduring successive shocks to health, food production and income that are at risk of hunger and poverty. Life-saving support is given to people made food insecure by HIV/AIDS and to households with transitory food needs as a result of shocks. 42 Part III - Operational priorities- 1 June 2008 Mozambique PRRO 10600.0 – Food Support for Protection and Promotion of Lives and Livelihoods of the Most Vulnerable People in Mozambique 01 April 2008 - 31 March 2011 Pipeline breaks over next 6 months (mt) Cereals 4,288 Sep-08 Pulses n/a n/a Blended Food 478 Oct-08 Oil 258 Immediate Other n/a n/a Resourcing (US$ million) Total Project 2008 Beneficiary Needs 131.1 27.2 Total Mobilized 11.0 11.0 Shortfall 120.0 16.2 Shortfall % 91.6 59.4 Photo: WFP/200702 SRS-Mirko Pecci WFP has been assisting Mozambique since 1975.

WFP has been providing food assistance to refugees in Zambia since 1968. • • • Additional contributions for this operation are needed urgently to cover distribution and repatriation requirements to ensure the success of the repatriation exercise which commenced in May. In 2008, WFP aims to facilitate the repatriation of 20,000 refugees from the Democratic Reoublic of Congo. Any break in the food pipeline may put this process in jeopardy. In addition, August is the beginning of the lean season in Zambia therefore these breaks will place already vulnerable refugees at an even greater risk of starvation. These breaks will also increase the strain on those that are HIV/AIDS positive and on Anti-Retroviral Treatment. The project supports 45,500 refugees from the Democratic Republic of Congo based in camps in Northern Zambia. In collaboration with IOM, UNHCR and other agencies, WFP assists the voluntary repatriation exercise by providing meals in departure/transit centres as well as ready to eat meals for refugees during travel.The number of refugees is expected to further reduce in 2009 subject to successful repatriation of Congolese refugees which has just commenced in 2007. 44 Part III - Operational priorities- 1 June 2008 Zimbabwe PRRO 10595.0 – Protracted Relief for Vulnerable Groups in Zimbabwe 01 May 2008 - 30 April 2010 Pipeline breaks over next 6 months (mt) Cereals n/a n/a Pulses 1,034 Aug-08 Blended Food 4,928 Immediate Oil 522 Oct-08 Other n/a n/a Resourcing (US$ million) Total Project 2008 Beneficiary Needs 319.0 106.6 Total Mobilized 71.9 71.9 Shortfall 247.1 34.6 Shortfall % 77.5 32.5 Photo: WFP/Richard Lee As of May 2008, a new project in Zimbabwe targets 1.8 million beneficiaries in 2008, through three types of programmess; emergency vulnerable group feeding, social-based and health-based programming. • • • This PRRO, which commenced in May, succeeds the Zimbabwe portion of the regional PRRO (10310.).

Further, it is now the hurricane season and stocks are at their lowest levels which could affect WFP’s rapid response capabilities in the case of natural disasters in the region. MCH programmes have been the main focus in Honduras, Nicaragua, and El Salvador. However, these programmes are being forced to reduce rations due to the lack of resources in the project. Poor and erratic harvests are increasing the vulnerability of people throughout the region. In El Salvador, needs have increased by 6,000 mt, and Guatemala requires and additional 2,000 mt over the next six months due to poor, erratic harvests. Due to high food prices, people are reverting to dangerous coping strategies including diminishing the quality and quantity of food consumption and planting in areas that are deteriorating rapidly. This could lead to more physical damages and losses in the event of a major natural event. Current Food for Work activities focusing on strengthening the resilience to shocks through disaster mitigation works and emergency preparedness training have been reduced due to a lack of funding.

In addition, blended food and oil shortfalls are together anticipated to exceed 400 mt over the next six months. A recalculation, based on current - drastically increased - prices of the available resources showed that over 320,000 people will be deprived of WFP food assistance or will not be adequately assisted in 2008 if no extra funds are allocated for Yemen. As a result of increased food prices, the food rations for the education component were dropped from three per year to only two. High food costs have forced WFP Yemen to limit its beneficiaries from 86,300 enrolled girls to 48,000. It is feared this will lead to more cases of girls dropping out of school. Due to the late arrival of an internationally-procured contribution, the vulnerable group food distribution was postponed for the second consecutive month, which will negatively impact the health status of mothers and children who depend on the aid, as well as impact the benefit of health services. WFP's goal to increase girls’ enrolment and attendance rates by 10 percent each year has already been reached.
