Summary
School feeding programmes are quickly gaining popularity in the region among governments as a critical investment in human capital, local economies, health, and nutrition, and are firmly leading the advancement of this agenda, despite the significant challenge of limited fiscal capacity. WFP continues to play an important role in school feeding and is well-positioned to support governments and contribute to the multiple benefits it offers.
