Pre-targeting has proven to shorten response time in emergencies and is part of WFP’s minimum preparedness actions. The pre-targeting is planned to happen between July and August 2024. This process entails beneficiary selection, household targeting and registration into SCOPE working closely with MPSLSW and WFP and the CP is expected to hand-over to WFP verified and validated list of beneficiaries. The domains have been prioritized using the food insecurity and vulnerability indicators from the recent ZIMLAC results.
