🚢 Humanitarian shipping is rarely straightforward. As the only UN organization with its own shipping service, @WFP works with ocean carriers to keep cargo moving, no matter what. 👉🏼US$7.5M saved = 556,000 people supported for one month

📈 Hunger is rising. 📉 Funding is plummeting. Humanitarian operations are overstretched and underfunded — leaving millions without food and putting global stability at risk. Hunger anywhere is a threat to peace everywhere

As the school year ends in many parts of the region, here is a reminder: 🟢 A school meal is more than food on a plate, it’s an investment in a child’s education, health & future. WFP works with countires to ensure millions of children get the nutrition they need to learn.

10 years of strong partnership. @WFP and @KSRelief have worked together since day one to fight hunger and build local, sustainable solutions. I met with H.E. Dr. Abdullah Al Rabeeah today to discuss the future: innovation, technology & scaling impact.

Great to be back in #Riyadh 🇸🇦. This partnership spans decades and supported millions. Saudi Arabia's support and leadership in advocating for aid to reach people safely - especially amid rising tensions - has been essential.

For most of us, food is comfort. For millions, it’s uncertainty — and survival. As aid cuts hit key operations, millions of people could slip into emergency hunger. 📣 Let’s not take a full plate for granted.

What is #famine? It's a global standard for defining the most devastating form of hunger. Famine is never inevitable. 📣 Food assistance during crises can make the difference between life and death.
