BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE OF THE ASSIGNMENT:

The World Food Programme’s (WFP) Community Feedback Mechanism (CFM) is a formal two-way communication system comprised of human resources, processes, hardware, and software, that facilitates the intake, management, analysis, actioning, and resolution of feedback received from affected populations and other relevant stakeholders (including affected populations, WFP, cooperating partners, third party monitors, government representatives and service providers). It facilitates participative approaches into the humanitarian response and a rights-based approach to development work, and is grounded in the principles of accountability, transparency, equality, and non-discrimination. It aims to enable community members to share information, express concerns and needs, or suggest changes regarding their experience with WFP or the wider humanitarian system.

One of WFP’s Strategic Objectives is to strengthen national programmes and systems, including social protection systems. WFP Social Protection Strategy includes a commitment to “support governments to develop processes and systems that are accessible, inclusive, dignified, and safe, and that demonstrate accountability to donors and other stakeholders”.

WFP has designed and run CFMs, in more than 70 countries adapting them to programme and country contexts. Since 2020, WFP has worked in 30 country offices (COs) with governments on their CFMs, or grievance redress mechanisms (GRM) as they’re known in Social Protection programmes.

CFMs are crucial to enhance government accountability, reinforcing the social contract by addressing beneficiary/citizens feedback, and ensuring the effectiveness, efficiency, and quality of program delivery, thereby legitimizing their existence, and fostering sustainability. Governments are turning to WFP as a key partner in ensuring that their social protection programmes are transparent, accountable, and effective in delivering various modalities of assistance.

In 2024, WFP received funding to enhance protection, accountability, and exclusion risk management capacity for national social protection programming, including research and development of a community engagement, feedback, and appeals mechanisms approach relevant and effective for social protection programmmes across various contexts. As part of this project, WFP HQ is supporting two COs (Lebanon and Somalia) in their GRM-related workstreams with government and social protection programmes with the goal to ensure i) the support is aligned with WFP standards ii) the learning from these implementations is documented and informs an overarching WFP approach to providing feedback strengthening support to governments.
