WFP Secondment –Cash and Voucher Programme Officer
The Government of Colombia is making advances on a number of issues that are central to resolving the civil conflict. In 2014, it was estimated that 5.9 million internally displaced people and 262,000 confined people still needed humanitarian assistance.
WFP’s role in Colombia is two-folded: 1. as a provider of humanitarian assistance to the populations affected by the civil conflict and 2. as a facilitator of development. The Government has requested WFP’s continued support to address the food and nutrition security issues resulting from instability associated with the civil conflict and gaps in coverage of the Government’s assistance programmes through programmes that would contribute to the peace process.
WFP aims to complement Government programmes, and support the development of efficient, sustainable and scalable food-assistance models.
