This report reflects WFP’s commitment to evidence-based,
result-oriented Anticipatory Action programmes that
prioritize transparency and accountability.

by the World Food Programme’s (WFP) Anticipatory Action
(AA) programmes worldwide, focusing on the food security
effects of providing assistance to populations prior to
extreme weather events. This document includes key
findings, lessons learned and recommendations for AA
practitioners, donors and decision-makers on how AA
programmes can be better monitored,evaluated, and,
ultimately, implemented in the future.
