WFP (World Food Programme) is the world’s largest humanitarian organization fighting hunger worldwide. It is a specialized agency of the United Nations that was established in 1961 to address the issue of global hunger. The organization provides food assistance to people affected by conflict, disasters, and other emergencies, as well as to those who are unable to access food due to poverty.
