Résumé
WFP plays a key role in supporting the Government of India in making its food-based social protection systems more efficient, nutritious, inclusive, and climate-proof. WFP has intensified its efforts to test innovative pilots, provide technical inputs to the Government's food-based social protection systems, strengthen the capacities of government stakeholders, and generate actionable evidence for scaling up proven solutions. WFP facilitated the sharing of best practices to address hunger through the G20 Summit, International Year of Millets events, and supporting learning visits by high-level government missions from Ghana and Nigeria to India. In 2023, WFP supported the Government in its expansion of the automated grain dispensing machine, Annapurti, to six states; efficiently and transparently providing entitlements to nearly 200,000 beneficiaries. WFP supported seven state governments in providing fortified rice under all food-based social protection systems, leading to nearly 400 million beneficiaries receiving fortified rice. Nearly 12 million young children, adolescent girls, pregnant and breastfeeding women received nutritious food through the take-home-ration initiative supported by WFP in three states. Advancing the Government’s vision of school nutrition gardens, WFP supported the Government by setting up 1,780 school kitchen gardens and conducting training on nutritious diets to more than 6,000 cooks hired by government schools.
