Operational Crisis Briefings

The "Operational Brief" is an extension of the Quarterly Operational Briefings at WFP Headquarters. The site provides you periodically with an update of WFPs emergency preparedness and response around the world. It also gives us an opportunity to share with you our analysis on emerging crises. Whenever possible, the briefings are given by WFP staff in Arabic, English, French and Spanish in video or in writing. Please note that the briefs are produced by WFP staff and are not necessarily products by professional media persons.
