Rome, 13 June 2008 - The Executive Board of WFP has approved a new four-year strategic plan that will be critical to addressing soaring hunger needs due to the global food crisis.
“This strategic plan marks a revolution in food aid that supports local markets in breaking the cycle of hunger,” said Josette Sheeran, WFP’s Executive Director, at the conclusion of WFP’s four-day Executive Board. “This is not your grandmother’s food aid, and just in time.”
