"What UN Volunteers with WFP do makes a difference in the lives of millions"
In Cameroon, 47 UN Volunteers supported the World Food Programme (WFP) in 2020, bringing 16 different profiles to the organization. Some 77 per cent of these UN Volunteers were national volunteers serving under the community, specialist and youth modalities, and 60 per cent of them were women. In the below video, Ms Wanja Kaaria, WFP Country Director, shares her experience working with UN Volunteers.
UN Volunteers have been key in improving food security in Cameroon to achieve WFP's zero hunger goal... Their youth, their passion for the work and their zeal to give out their expertise for humanities' sake makes them unique. -- Ms Wanja Kaaria, Country Director of WFP, Cameroon
