We bring life-saving relief in emergencies and use food assistance to build peace, stability and prosperity for people recovering from conflict, disasters and the impact of weather extremes.

We span a broad range of activities, bringing life-saving assistance in emergencies and supporting sustainable and resilient livelihoods to achieve a world with zero hunger.

We work in over 120 countries and territories, combining emergency assistance with long-term development while adapting our activities to the context and challenges of each location and its people.

There is a variety of ways in which people can support WFP’s mission to eliminate hunger, from making a donation to bringing your expertise to our work on the frontlines.

The study aims to: (i) enable a deeper understanding of existing national social protection policies, programmes and related instruments; (ii) provide an overview of notable challenges and opportunities for social protection in Sri Lanka to support humanitarian and development goals; and (iii) provide strategic and programmatic recommendations to WFP towards the formulation of future strategic direction, policy, and partnership goals.
