World Food Program (WFP),Monitoring Assistant Jobs in Rwanda

The
World Food Programme is the world’s largest humanitarian agency fighting hunger
worldwide.
In emergencies,
we get food to where it is needed, saving the lives of victims of war, civil
conflict and natural disasters. After the cause

of an emergency has passed, we use
food to help communities rebuild their shattered lives.

WFP
is part of the United Nations system and is voluntarily funded.
Born
in 1961, WFP pursues a vision of the world in which every man, woman and child
has access at all times to the food needed for an active and healthy life. We
work towards that vision with our sister UN agencies in Rome — the Food and
Agriculture Organization (FAO) and
the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD)
— as well as other government, UN and NGO partners.
On
average, WFP reaches more than 80 million people with food assistance in
82 countries each year.  11,367 people work for the
organization, most of them in remote areas, directly serving the hungry poor.
