WFP report shows 1.005m vulnerable people assisted in 2022

AMMAN — The World Food Programme (WFP) injected more than $207 million into the local economy in 2022, reaching 92 per cent of the intended beneficiaries, with over 1,005,000 vulnerable people assisted, according to the WFP’s Annual Country Report for 2022.

In 2022, WFP Jordan completed the last year of its first-generation country strategic plan (CSP) for 2020-2022.

While Jordan started to recover from the socio-economic impact of COVID-19, with the lift of restrictions and overall economic growth of 2.6 per cent, the crisis in Ukraine triggered other problems.
