Unless swift action is taken, some 265 million people in low and middle-income countries will be in acute food insecurity by the end of 2020, due to conflict, climate shocks, poverty and #COVID19.

The COVID-19 pandemic is exacerbating food insecurity, interrupting supply chains, and moving more people into hunger than previously predicted. WFP seeks cutting-edge solutions to transform emergency response and to achieve SDG2: Zero Hunger by 2030 for communities impacted by COVID19 and beyond. Innovations are needed more than ever before to achieve this goal.

Benefits

By submitting your solution, you might be selected to attend the next Innovation Accelerator Bootcamp, from November 30-December 04. In addition, your solution may be considered for the Accelerator Sprint Programme, with up to US$ 100,000 in funding, and access to our support and insight.
