This information paper focuses on how to improve the effectiveness of WFP’s operational response to internal displacement. WFP's role is framed and fulfilled by its mandate and within broader United Nations discussions that are still evolving. The paper underscores that WFP will provide food assistance to the internally displaced and other groups affected by displacement to promote their food security when requested by Member States of the United Nations or Associate Members of any specialized agency or of the International Atomic Energy Agency.
