Applications are now open for the 2024 WFP Iraq PALM Innovation Challenge. To address these challenges, the World Food Programme (WFP) is launching its first-ever call for applications in Iraq. The PALM (Promoting Adaptation through Localized Methods) Iraq Innovation Challenge aims to identify and support local cost-effective solutions, both low-tech and high-tech, to build resilience and enhance climate adaptation of affected communities.
WFP invite innovators, entrepreneurs and organizations from Iraq to contribute impactful and fit-for-purpose solutions to strengthen the capacities of local communities to adapt to climate change and improve livelihood opportunities. WFP in Iraq will provide comprehensive support to selected teams, facilitating the development and scaling of the most promising solutions. Our focus is on nurturing innovations that are not only novel to the context of Iraq but also sustainable, scalable, and capable of bringing long-term change within the local ecosystem.​​
