Through this project, Acted will work with the most vulnerable food insecure populations and IDPs in Somali Region, in Liban, Afdher, Daawa, Korahe and Doolo zones, through General Food Distributions (GFDs) targeting a total of 746,466 beneficiaries. Acted will conduct annual in-kind GFDs that will help individuals and families who are acutely vulnerable to food security due to being displaced by the prolonged drought and floods ongoing in Somali Region, and the unavailability of diverse livelihoods and income generating activities. Potential modifier: Acted will be willing to facilitate cash transfers in addition or in replacement of in-kind GFDs upon request of WFP.
