WHY JOIN WFP?
ORGANISATIONAL CONTEXT
WFP Palestine is operating in areas where military armed actors and other stakeholders are present and influence our access to beneficiaries, and beneficiaries access to our services. This has resulted in the unavoidable sharing of space between those entities and the humanitarian community – an intensely kinetic conflict environment, with heavy restrictions on humanitarian access, most acute in Gaza and increasingly across the West Bank (WB). The current WFP operations in Gaza – and, to a lesser extent the WB – are scaling up throughout 2024, with a corresponding uplift also required in WFP’s Access capacity.
The Gaza Logistics Special Operations (LSO) Unit enhances logistics operations by focusing on specialized logistics assessments, fuel management, fleet management, engineering projects, and special deliveries where and when needed. Collaborating closely with the World Food Programme (WFP) Supply Chain unit, the LSO ensures effective cargo deliveries and supply management and leverages the use of WFP’s specialist logistics assets.
The LSO creates a robust framework that enhances logistics capacity in Gaza, providing critical support for humanitarian operations. It streamlines activities to provide integrated logistics solutions, developing innovative modes of operation, often employing specialist assets and heavy machinery. It collaborates closely with WFP logistics and programme teams to assess complex needs, ensuring activities are prioritised based on urgency and safety.
The Specialized Machinery and Engineering Projects (SMEP) Unit works as part of the LSO, addressing urgent infrastructure challenges in Gaza. It ensures efficient delivery of humanitarian aid by clearing rubble and facilitating access. This collaboration ensures timely, lifesaving assistance in a challenging environment.
SMEP supports partners needing machinery for engineering projects, such as winterization efforts. By collaborating with sectoral clusters and local contractors, it mobilizes a skilled workforce to improve living conditions for vulnerable populations.
