Support to Integrate Protection and Accountability to Affected Populations (AAP) in WFP

Project completed

Switzerland aims at supporting WFP’s capacity to integrate Protection, Accountability to Affected Populations (AAP) and Gender in its programmes. The support is relevant because WFP is currently in the process of combining these dimensions, which is in line with Switzerland’s understanding of an efficient and effective humanitarian programming.
