Job Description

ORGANIZATIONAL CONTEXTDespite the economic growth of the last decade, the level of food insecurity has been stagnant over the past five years in Armenia. Although the situation is improving for a large share of the population, those worst off are being left behind, demonstrating significant disparities and uneven territorial development in Armenia.In response to these challenges, WFP Armenia Country Strategic Plan (CSP) 2019 ? 2024, building on past and current experience gathered in the implementation on its flagship activity since 2010 namely, the school feeding programme, foresees significant strategic investment in the establishment of a comprehensive and strategic response to food insecurity, malnutrition and poverty.
