Tajikistan is a landlocked country with a population of 10.2 million people, where 93 percent of the territory is covered by mountains.  

Malnutrition continues to be widespread, as are micronutrient deficiencies in vitamin A and iron. Anaemia affects 35.2 percent of women and girls of reproductive age.   
 
Tajikistan's prudent monetary policy and appreciation of the exchange rate have enabled the country to attain the lowest inflation rate in the region.  

WFP provides access to nutritional support and healthcare, promotes school meals, builds resilience to the effects of climate change, and ensures preparedness for recurring disasters. 

What the World Food Programme is doing in Tajikistan

Resilience building

Communities receive cash transfers for working on community assets such as irrigation systems, soil conservation and regeneration, drinking-water supplies, and the construction of bridges, roads and other critical infrastructure. These assets reduce the risk of disaster, build climate resilience and strengthen livelihoods.
