In close partnership with the Palestinian Authority and Food Security Sector partners, WFP’s Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) strategy focuses on building the resilience and capacity of the most vulnerable people and communities. WFP works on ensuring food security during disasters and increasing the government’s ability to respond to them while reducing risk and protecting and enhancing lives and livelihoods. <\/p><\/div>\n

WFP’s Disaster Risk Reduction Policy Worldwide<\/strong><\/p><\/div>\n

\n

Disaster risk reduction and emergency preparedness and response are central priorities for WFP in light of the profound impacts that disasters have on food-insecure and vulnerable populations worldwide. In 2010, more than 50 percent of WFP’s programmes addressed the risks of natural disasters and their impact on food security, reaching approximately 80 million people.<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

WFP’s role as the world’s largest humanitarian food assistance organization, combined with its deep field presence in the world’s hotspots, makes it one of the key experts in emergency preparedness and response.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n

Following the global Hyogo Framework, WFP’s strategy has four integrated pillars: 1) Enable the Environment, 2) Watch to Safeguard, 3) Prepare to Respond and 4) Build Resilience.<\/p><\/div>\n
