In 2020, the United Nations World Food Program ( WFP ) was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for its efforts to fight hunger, to help bring about peace, and to prevent the use of hunger as a weapon of war. The WFP focuses its work on hunger and food security issues. In 1962, the organization shipped wheat, sugar and tea to Iran after an earthquake killed 12,000 people. Since then, it has been helping victims of natural disasters. Other areas of work include the school meals program which covered about 17 million children in 2019. The WFP believes that food security and peace go hand in hand. The world cannot end hunger without putting an end to conflict. In 2010, the WFP successfully resolved a conflict situation in Central Asia. Several villages on the border of two countries were quarreling over water resources. The WFP helped to rebuild water supply systems which were shared across borders and provided food for people who joined in the construction. In 2017, millions of people in the Arab country of Yemen were close to starving in the war between rival groups. Some of these groups cut off food supplies to cause fear in the population. However, WFP workers managed to bring wheat flour to people in need, preventing the use of hunger as a weapon of war. About 100 million people received WFP food assistance in 2020. By winning the Nobel Prize, the WFP hopes that it will draw attention to the problem of hunger.
