About this document

WFP DPR Korea Country Brief 2021 by Jack Hong is a document available to read on EtoBox.

WFP provides food assistance to vulnerable groups in North Korea. It needs $21 million for operations in 2022. Due to COVID-19 border closures, the last food distribution was in March 2021 and international staff have left the country. Food security has been affected by the pandemic restrictions, a below-average harvest in 2020, and sanctions complicating financial operations. WFP works with the North Korean government on implementation.
