UN's World Food Programme Launches Accelerator Program in Munich World Food Program Bootcamp (photo courtesy of World Food Program) Solving World Hunger? Isn't that the saying your boss always tells you that you are not trying to solve? The United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) today stepped up its search for innovative solutions to spur progress towards Zero Hunger by launching an Innovation Accelerator to identify and nurture new, bold responses to humanitarian and development challenges as outlined in the Sustainable Development Goals. Based in Munich, the Innovation Accelerator was opened  in August 2015 to further nurture the innovative culture of WFP colleagues while collaborating with external experts from diverse sectors and institutions.  Teams collaborate for three- to six-month periods on selected ideas that are either proposed by WFP innovators with first-hand field knowledge or crowd-sourced by engaging members of the general public.
