The United Nations World Food Programme is a humanitarian nonprofit organization based in Rome, Italy. It responds to emergencies by delivering food and cash assistance to crisis-affected populations and works to strengthen national systems so communities can better withstand future shocks. Its operations span global relief, recovery, and resilience-building activities. Its primary beneficiaries are communities affected by crises and the governments and partners that implement relief and resilience programs, with a focus on food security and climate resilience. In June 2026, WFP announced the appointment of Chef Rasmus Munk as a Goodwill Ambassador, reflecting its ongoing public-facing engagement. Also in June 2026, WFP began implementing the Adaptation Fund Climate Innovation Accelerator in Nepal in collaboration with the Ministry of Agriculture, Forests and Environment, marking a concrete expansion of its resilience work.
