Explanation
The World Food Programme (WFP) was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2020. The Norwegian Nobel Committee honored the organization for its extensive efforts to combat hunger and its contribution to improving conditions for peace in conflict-affected regions. Specifically, the WFP was recognized for acting as a driving force in international efforts to prevent the use of hunger as a weapon of war and conflict. As the world's largest humanitarian organization addressing hunger and promoting food security, the WFP provided assistance to nearly 100 million people in 88 countries in 2019. The award underscored the critical link between food security and global stability, highlighting that sustainable peace cannot be achieved without addressing the root causes of hunger and malnutrition.
