Résumé
In 2021, WFP consolidated its partnership with the Government to improve and extend the school feeding programme and support the decentralization and diversification of its supply chain with the aim of enhancing community resilience and programme sustainability. WFP continued fostering the optimisation of the school meals supply chain. By promoting the sourcing of up to 20 percent of the food served in school canteens from school gardens tended by community-based organizations mainly made up of local women WFP is improving the nutritional value of school meals, while boosting the local economy and contributing to the economic empowerment of local women. In 2021, WFP started providing technical assistance to establish a national food security monitoring system to inform food security considerations to make national safety nets, such as social assistance transfers and school meals, more inclusive and shock responsive. COVID-19 continued to have a negative impact on the Tunisian population. In support of the increase in vulnerability caused by COVID-19 related restrictions, WFP responded to the request of the Ministry of Social Affairs by providing food parcels to 15,000 vulnerable individuals. In 2021, WFP focused also on strengthening the government’s capacity to generate gender-sensitive data and analysis to ensure that the food security challenges of women farmers are addressed by national policy and strategies.
