Do national governments eventually take over WFP’s food assistance programs?
WFP implements food assistance programs under the assumption that national and local governments will eventually take them over. Throughout the entire establishment and implementation process, WFP works with the government. After a program has been in place for a certain period of time, WFP will begin the transition process to respective government officials. WFP remains in place during this process in an advisory capacity. For example, within the past 40 years, more than 30 countries have already taken over WFP school meals programs, and most are now providing school meals on their own.
