FOOD AID TO CONFLICT AFFECTED POPULATIONS WFP EMERGENCY OPERATION - THE CASE OF EASTERN UKRAINE

Abstract

The increase in the number of areas where humanitarian emergencies a re brought about by armed conflicts, and the enduring nature of these situations, call for research aimed at clarifying the international legal framework for food-aid operations, taking into acc ount the developments and practices in the fields of human rights, humanitarian law, environmental la w, and cooperation for sustainable development. In this article, therefore, the Author analyses the gen eral problems of food aid in conflict areas, with a focus on a concrete situation, namely the crisis in Eastern U kraine. The dramatic situation faced by some Ukrainian regions - where, since the spring of 2014, the World Food Programme (WFP), various other international organizations, the EU and some Nati onal Development Cooperations have been operating - underlines, in fact, the importance of reaching a clea r understanding of all the different regulatory levels in the field of food aid security and safety.
