Together with WFP Representative and Country Director in Sri Lanka Abdur Rahim Siddiqui, the ambassadors then met with a group of people from the Kurunegala District, and heard first-hand accounts of the difficulties they face against a backdrop of rising food prices and reduced incomes. Among those with whom the ambassadors spoke was a pregnant mother who described her struggle in accessing healthy food which meets her specific nutrition needs.
WFP’s ongoing emergency response aims to reach 3.4 million people by the end of the year, targeting the most vulnerable and marginalised communities, including persons with disabilities, women-headed households, pregnant and breastfeeding women, and children. WFP is currently providing emergency food assistance through cash, food, and vouchers with plans to reach 1.4 million people. With assistance from the US Government, WFP will also help feed one million school children through the national school meal programme, and support the continuation of the Thriposha fortified food programme, targeting one million undernourished children and pregnant and breastfeeding women.
