Global hunger has reached alarming levels in 2022, and WFP, Nobel Peace Prize winner (2020), remains dedicated and committed to addressing this global food crisis. To enhance the efficiency and impact of our global initiatives, WFP is relocating key corporate functions within procurement and supply chain from its headquarters (Rome, Italy) to the UAE. The UAE, chosen for its strategic location, stability, advanced infrastructure, markets, expertise, and innovation, is hosting the newly established Global Supply Chain Support Center. Six national Emirati positions, integral to this initiative, are part of WFP's innovative Humanitarian Leaders Talent Programme.

The Humanitarian Leaders Programme is a dedicated investment in nurturing young Emirati talent, aiming to develop future humanitarian responders and leaders. This program offers high-potential Emirati professionals a unique opportunity to accelerate their career growth, aligning with the UAE government's priorities. It also serves as a platform for Emirati talents to familiarize themselves with the UN system and become future humanitarian leaders. For WFP, this program is a chance to leverage the talent, knowledge, and cutting-edge practices developed in the UAE, particularly in areas crucial to WFP, such as sustainability, innovation, AI, and digitization.
