This approach ensures that operations are not only efficient and cost-effective but also transparent and responsive to the needs of beneficiaries.
APP works to ensure that decision-making within WFP is grounded in credible, relevant, and timely data.
This is achieved through a structured approach that spans the full programme lifecycle, from conducting initial assessments that inform programme design to monitoring outcomes for ongoing projects.
