Faith
The underlying purpose of food aid is based on the needs of the affected population. These are;
- To provide a short-term income transfer or income substitution to people to allow
household resources to be invested in recovery and long term development.
- To provide sufficient food resources to eliminate the need for survival strategies, that
may result in long-term negative consequences for human dignity, household viability,
livelihood security and the environment.
- To sustain life by ensuring adequate availability and access to food by people affected by
disaster.
