Climate Change Adaptation

WFP Sri Lanka invests in disaster preparedness and mitigation through a climate change adaption initiative jointly implemented with the Ministry of Environment from 2014-2016 for a total fund of US$ 8 Million

Through this initiative, WFP supports vulnerable people and communities, national Governments, regional institutions and global partners in their efforts to foster climate change adaptation and mitigation by contributing knowledge, capacities, programmes, and initiatives with a specific focus on fighting climate related hunger and malnutrition.

Through this project, WFP and the Government are strengthening the community resilience to possible climatic shocks.
