In January 2007, WFP initiated a retargeting exercise to support the extension of WFP’s emergency operation (EMOP) to provide assistance to drought-affected populations in Mid-
and Far-Western Nepal. Seven district- level consultations were conducted where stakeholders identified and prioritized the communities in most need of food aid. This information was cross-referenced with data obtained from WFP field monitors. The result is the VDC targeting plan referenced in Map 1. In total 24,866 households in these communities are estimated to need emergency food aid (see also the WFP Food Security Bulletin, No 16). This Emergency Update provides information on the livelihood status, household security situation, crop situation, and coping mechanisms used by communities targeted for EMOP food assistance in comparison to communities outside of the target EMOP area. By comparing the data from the two communities, the desperate situation of households located within the EMOP target area is evident.
