Targeted supplementary feeding in Qandala

TSS implemented the Targeted Supplementary Feeding Programme (TSFP) through community-based final distribution points across Qandala District. The programme supported children aged 6–59 months affected by moderate acute malnutrition, together with pregnant and lactating women, and maintained site-level records for admissions, exits, caseloads and supplementary-food movements.

Documented partnership: Signed agreements CP/TSS/190/TSFP/2013 and CP/TSS/191/TSFP/2013 identify TSS as WFP’s cooperating partner in Qandala under PRRO 200443. Monthly WFP-format reports identify the WFP Bosaso Sub-office as the responsible field office.

Formal WFP partnership

Two signed Field Level Agreements dated April 2013 document TSS’s role in reception, handling, community distribution, beneficiary monitoring and reporting for WFP-supported targeted supplementary feeding in Qandala.
