The international dimension also allows us to project our voice across the globe to communicate a common message: hunger has a solution.
ALMOST 9,000 PEOPLE WORK AT OUR ORGANISATION
Our technical experts address key areas such as nutrition, health, agriculture, livelihoods, disaster risk management, water, sanitation and hygiene, digital transformation and emergencies. Our teams may differ culturally, geographically or linguistically, but they all have a common commitment: to fight world hunger.

WHAT WE ARE DOING
An estimated 14.6 million people, 40% of the population, are in need of humanitarian assistance in Ukraine. Of these, approximately 7.3 million require food. To date, we have supported 500,000 people in Ukraine, focusing on improving food security, providing food, cash assistance, basic medical care, psychological counselling and access to drinking water and adequate sanitation.
We have been working since 2002 in the West Bank and since 2005 in Gaza. At the moment we have a team of more than 20 people there who continue to work despite the extreme difficulty. We have helped more than 60,000 families (380,000 people) and continue to distribute water, fresh fruit, nappies and install latrines.
Nearly 18 million people in the country (1 in 3) are acutely food insecure due to a conflict that has generated the largest displacement crisis in the world, with 11 million people. We are responding to this emergency with health, nutrition and protection programmes for victims of gender-based violence. Between April and December 2023, we helped almost 500,000 people.
Over recent years, our work in Central America has focused on addressing the humanitarian needs linked to the increase in migrants crossing the region on their way to Mexico and the United States. In addition, the region faces high climatic and environmental vulnerability. Over the past year, we assisted 545,043 migrants with health, education, nutrition and water and sanitation programmes.
