WFP’s Support to Strengthening the National Social Protection System in Zimbabwe

Published on 5 June 2025

This case study explores the World Food Programme’s (WFP) role in supporting social protection in Zimbabwe over the last decade.

It assesses how WFP has supported the building blocks of Zimbabwe’s national social protection system, focusing on non-contributory social assistance as the government’s main mechanism for supporting poor and vulnerable people. This is a light-touch exercise, undertaken through a rapid literature review and interviews with WFP staff.
