Operational Partnerships
In 2016, WFP Afghanistan partnered with 85 national and international non-governmental organizations (NGOs)
which enabled WFP to reach vulnerable communities across the country to respond to the food security and
nutrition needs of children, women and men.
WFP continued to exercise due diligence and maintained a strategic and flexible approach in selecting partners for
implementing its programmes. For example, WFP strictly conducts evaluations of its cooperating partners every
year. If its performance was not satisfactory, the partner could not continue to work with WFP. Also, in 2016, WFP
entered six stand-by agreements with various local partners to enable quicker response to internal displacements.
As a result, emergency response capabilities and response times have improved significantly resulting in an
increased level of effectiveness and cost-efficiency.
To tackle the underlying causes of food insecurity and malnutrition and address gender inequality in access to
services, WFP continued to engage more local NGOs headed by women in its programmes. In 2016, WFP
partnered with an additional six local NGOs headed by women, raising the percentage of such NGOs from 8 to
