An impression: WFP logistics in Tanzania - port operations

From the pictures I made during the discharge of one of the ships with a USAID shipment here in the Dar es Salaam port, I compiled a short video which gives an impression of what we do here.

It can be found on Youtube, under the following URL:

Food For Work around Dodoma

Mercredi, 06 janv. 2010
Written by Robert van Bemmelen
My last day in Dodoma I took the chance to go visit several projects under the ‘Food for Work’ program that WFP is running in the villages around the city. Food for Work ‘pays workers with food to start building a hunger-free future for their communities’.

Hi Robbert, impressive picture of you sitting on the giantic pile of corn meal. Next week myself and 8 Benelux TNT''ers are heading of a fieldtrip visiting the TNT/WFP projects in Malawi. Great to know WFP is putting so much effort in making sure all food aid gets to the beneficiaries that can't do without it. Best of luck and make sure to keep us posted about your activities :)
Best regards,
Lars
