The purpose of this KPI is to measure the proportion of WFP’s total annual confirmed contributions provided by its top five donors, in order to assess the concentration of the resource base and monitor progress toward greater funding diversification and financial resilience
CALCULATION FORMULA
Result KPI = ( Total confirmed contributions from the top five donors in the reference year ÷ Total confirmed contributions in the reference year ) X 100
Where:
Confirmed Contributions include all contributions (including ISC) available for use in the reference year, meaning:
Contributions confirmed in the current year with validity starting in the same year
Contributions confirmed in previous years with validity starting in the reference year
Excludes contributions confirmed in the current year with validity beginning in future years
Excludes accounting adjustments
Reference year is the year in which funds are made available for use by the donor
Donor refers to the legal entity recognized by WFP as the funding source
CALCULATION STEPS
Identify the reference year Determine the year in which contributions become available for use (validity year)
Calculate total confirmed contributions (all donors):
Sum all confirmed contributions available for use in the reference year, including ISC, excluding contributions with future validity periods and accounting adjustments
Identify the top five donors:
Rank all donors by their confirmed contributions in the reference year and select the top five
Calculate confirmed contributions from the top five donors: Sum the confirmed contributions from these five donors
Apply the formula

ASSUMPTIONS
The global trend of reduced humanitarian funding is expected to continue
Major donors are assumed to remain committed to WFP with sizeable annual contributions
The relative ranking of top donors is expected to remain broadly stable year‑to‑year
Confirmed contributions accurately reflect funds truly available for use in the reference year
