Commitment description
WFP is committed to scale up its food fortification efforts in the coming years, as part of our broader commitment to meet the nutrient needs of the most vulnerable, especially in fragile settings. To this end, WFP commits to increasing the proportion, by volume, of fortified staples out of the staples distributed each year (i.e., wheat flour, maize flour and rice), from 60% in 2020 to 80% in 2025, while working to ensure that national systems in at least 40 countries are able to bring fortified foods within reach of the most vulnerable people.
