with a rapidly expanding population.  Most livelihoods depend on rain-fed agriculture – making the population highly vulnerable to disasters, particularly droughts and cyclone-induced floods.  </p> <p>The country is facing a <strong>food crisis due to El Niño-induced drought</strong>. A long, dry spell in February 2024 affected 44 percent of the maize crop and left 5.7 million people acutely food insecure.  </p> <p>Millions are struggling, with families resorting to negative coping strategies like pulling children out of school to work or selling critical household assets. </p> <div class="expand expand--closed expand--field-field_rich_text_0"> <p>The drought follows a series of climate disasters, including<strong> Tropical Storm Ana in 2022 and Tropical Cyclone Freddy in 2023.</strong> These challenges are exacerbated by weak economic growth, high debt,  low primary school completion,  high prevalence of stunting  (impaired growth due to malnutrition) and  a high HIV/AIDS infection rate.  </p> <p>The World Food Programme (WFP) has been in Malawi since 1965. While WFP has preferred cash transfers over food distributions in recent years, the severity of current shortages both in Malawi and the region has meant a shift to imported food.  </p> <p>WFP aims to <strong>reach 2.1 million people with food distributions and cash transfers</strong>, treat nearly 90,000 children for malnutrition, and provide additional school meals to 700,000 children.</p> </div> <div class="tc expand--link-wrapper"> <a href="#" class="expand--more" data-js-expand-target=".expand--field-field_rich_text_0"> <span class="expand--label">Show more</span> </a> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="columns__side"> </div> </div> <div class="field field--field-paragraphs"> <div class="paragraph paragraph--type-page-accordion paragraph--view-mode-full mv4 mv5-lg clearfix"> <h2 class="page-stripe__title wfp-wrapper">What the World Food Programme is doing in Malawi</h2> <section class="accordion wfp-wrapper js--accordion"> <dl class="accordion__items js--accordion__items"> <dt class="accordion__item-title active"> <div> <span>Food assistance </span> </div> </dt> <dd class="accordion__item-panel active"> <div class="accordion__item-content">WFP supports the Government in responding to emergencies by providing food and cash-based transfers including to refugees.

WFP is distributing food under the El Niño emergency response. This effort, which complements the Government’s national response plan, is supported by donor commitments.

In 2022, WFP uses a home-grown school feeding approach that uses fresh foods bought from local smallholder farmers. This provides a consistent market for the farmers, and fresh, locally produced nutritious food for the children. As part of the El Niño response, WFP extended school-meal programmes as emergency support to 700,000 children and assisted the treatment of moderate acute malnutrition for 88,000 children. WFP shares nutrition messaging to promote healthy habits in schools and communities. WFP also focuses on institutional capacity strengthening, working, with the Government and other sectors to increase technical capacity of operations and systems to increase ownership and sustainability.</div> <aside class="accordion__item-side"> <div class="accordion__item-image"> <img src="https://www.wfp.org/sites/default/files/styles/page_accordion/public/images/WF1929142%2020240724_MWI_Giulio-dAdamo_052.jpg?itok=WJeyoLaM" alt="A girl in a pink headscarf eats a spoonful of food in a classroom."> </div> </aside> </dd> <dt class="accordion__item-title "> <div> <span>Livelihoods </span> </div> </dt> <dd class="accordion__item-panel "> <div class="accordion__item-content">WFP’s “changing lives” agenda in Malawi focuses on asset creation, climate-smart agriculture, increased access to finance (savings and loans), crop insurance, management of post-harvest losses, and linking smallholder farmers to markets.
