The World Food Programme (WFP) is the largest humanitarian agency tackling hunger worldwide. It has nearly 14 000 staff, who reach more than 90 million people with food assistance each year. WFP supports national and regional efforts to ensure food security for all, including the poorest and most vulnerable children, women and men. It works with a range of partners, such as governments, United Nations agencies, nongovernmental and international organizations, civil society and the private sector, to reach its goal. As a UNAIDS Cosponsor, WFP shares the vision of achieving zero new HIV infections, zero discrimination and zero AIDS-related deaths. Under the UNAIDS Division of Labour, WFP is the convening agency responsible for integrating food and nutrition within the comprehensive care, treatment and support package for people living with HIV and/or active tuberculosis (TB). In addition, WFP co-convenes the area of HIV in humanitarian emergencies with the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugee (UNHCR).
