WFP’s evidence base on Anticipatory Action 2015-2024

This report reflects World Food Programme’s (WFP) commitment to evidence-based, result-oriented anticipatory action programmes that prioritize transparency and accountability. It reviews the evidence gathered by the WFP's anticipatory action programmes worldwide, focusing on the food security effects of providing assistance to populations prior to extreme weather events. It also includes key findings, lessons learned and recommendations for practitioners, donors and decision-makers on how anticipatory action programmes can be better monitored, evaluated and, ultimately, implemented in the future.
