Standard Project Report 2016
WFP continued to co-lead the Food Security and Agriculture Cluster together with the Food and Agriculture
Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the DSWD, as well as the Logistics Cluster and the Office of Civil
Defense during emergencies. As was shown during Typhoon Haima (October 2016) and Typhoon Nock-ten
(December 2016), WFP has worked with these main government agencies and United Nations agencies to conduct
emergency preparedness activities, needs assessment and analysis, monitoring and reporting, planning and
strategy development, and prioritising cross-cutting issues including gender, accountability to affected populations,
protection, disaster-risk reduction and climate change adaptation. WFP also continued to promote and apply
international standards and guiding principles for humanitarian interventions.
Under the Philippine Development Plan 2011-2016, which indicated the country's national development policies,
strategies, and targets, WFP complemented the Government's priorities related to food and nutrition security and
the attainment of the Sustainable Development Goal 2: End Hunger through the United Nations Development
Assistance Framework (UNDAF), where WFP is the lead convener of the food and nutrition security outcome group.
This undertaking is continuously being reviewed and enhanced together with the United Nations Country Team and
the National Economic and Development Authority.
Also within the umbrella of the UNDAF, WFP is actively involved in the United Nations Network for Scaling Up
Nutrition (SUN) to support the Government in its effort to upgrade the nutrition programme in the country such as
the integrated management of acute malnutrition, nutrition in emergencies, food fortification, nutrition cluster
coordination, strategic planning, monitoring, advocacy and communication, among others.
Parallel to the UNDAF, WFP also supported the development of the Government's Philippine Plan of Action for
Nutrition (PPAN). PPAN is the Government's framework to address malnutrition in its various forms (child stunting,
wasting, overweight, obesity and micronutrient deficiency
