WFP has two ongoing projects that serve Bhutanese refugees in Nepal: the country programme (CP) 200319 and the protracted relief and recovery operation (PRRO) 200787. These projects aim to prevent undernutrition and enable year-round access to food for vulnerable groups, including pregnant and lactating women and young children.
Having launched humanitarian operations to support the populations affected by the major earthquakes that hit Nepal in 2015, WFP continued its emergency operation (EMOP) 200668 until January 2016 and the logistics cluster and telecommunication services special operation (SO) 200848 until April 2016 to address remaining needs in promoting household food security and delivery of food and supplies to high mountainous locations. The earthquake in April 2015 caused almost 9,000 deaths and widespread damage to infrastructure, and the scale of the response required regional augmentation of capacity and resources. As a follow-up to the EMOP, WFP launched PRRO 00875 to support the rehabilitation of the three earthquake-affected districts—Gorkha, Dhading and Nuwakot.
