The World Food Programme (WFP) is proud to work with around 1,000 non-governmental organizations (NGOs) around the globe, from small grassroots groups to large international humanitarian agencies.

Without this collaboration, our efforts to bring much-needed assistance to 152 million people in over 120 countries would not be possible. Without the vocal support of these organizations, our efforts to put zero hunger at the top of the international agenda would be far less successful.

NGOs are at our side in many programme settings, from food distributions in emergencies to longer-term initiatives such as school meals and asset creation. In fact, three-quarters of our food and cash-based transfers are delivered together with NGOs. In partnership, we combine complementary strengths and expertise with the common goal of achieving zero hunger.

NGO partners enable us to deliver quickly and effectively, and to access areas that we would be unable to reach alone. NGOs, in particular local organizations, are often in the unique position of having a long-term presence in, and a deep contextual understanding of, the communities we work with. Their daily contact with communities before, during and after emergencies provides us with an invaluable link to the people we serve. They allow us to carry out increasingly innovative and multi-dimensional programmes.

In turn, with its vast field presence, WFP enables NGOs to expand their own reach. They can strengthen their technical knowledge and expertise by drawing on our decades-long experience in logistics, emergency preparedness, cash and voucher distribution, vulnerability mapping and nutrition programming. WFP can also provide the funding needed to scale up programmes, which NGOs may be unable to secure alone. Here is the link to access data on WFP's FLA agreements with NGOs in 2023.

Supporting local and national first responders

In 2021, for the first time, WFP consulted with its local and international NGOs on the development of its Strategic Plan 2022-2025, which commits to working more deeply together. This consultation also gave NGOs the opportunity to ensure that their own strategies were aligned with those of WFP, where possible.

As a signatory of the Grand Bargain – a package of reforms to humanitarian funding launched at the World Humanitarian Summit in 2016 – WFP agreed to provide more support and funds to first responders, including NGOs.

The drive towards a more localized response to humanitarian needs is already reflected in WFP’s capacity strengthening activities with local and national NGOs: around 85 percent of WFP’s NGO partners are country specific. Developing their capability ensures our interventions have a long-lasting impact, by empowering communities and countries to address their own food challenges.

Annual Partnership Consultations

WFP’s Annual Partnership Consultations (APCs) have been an important date on the development calendar since 1995. They provide a unique opportunity for WFP and current and potential partners from around the globe to come together and engage in strategic discussions on burning topics, including tangible and trackable action plans to save and change lives in a more effective, efficient and innovative way. Each year, hundreds of local and international NGO partners are invited to join with their CEOs and directors of operations.

APC 2022: Between the 25 and 27 of October, hundreds of partners gathered in the WFP headquarters to attend the Annual Partnership Consultation 2022. For the very first time, the event was held in a hybrid format allowing many representatives of our cooperating partners to follow the 7 sessions featured in the programme via zoom. Panelists and participants of APC 2022 tackled some of the most burning issues within the humanitarian sector, committing to further strengthen our relationships to address the great challenges of our present time. On day one, CEOs of international (PLAN international, Action Against Hunger, Welthungerhilfe) and local organizations engaged with WFP leadership, during a strategic roundtable, in a series of focused sessions on the global food security crisis and response, the status of political engagement, the increasing difficulties to raise funds, the programmatic solutions that could help our community pass through the storm and the crucial role collective advocacy can play to support our efforts. The agenda of the following two days featured the soft launch of the new School Meals Coalition communication and outreach initiative and a read-out of a recent study on WFP’s Field Level Agreement (FLA). The programme also included in-depth conversations around the adoption of innovative tools to prevent sexual exploitation and abuse, best practices on how to break down disability barriers and foster inclusion, the role of the Inter Agency Working Group on Specialized Nutritious Food and the importance of engaging with women-led organizations during emergency response.
