Summary
In partnership with the Ministry of Education (MINEDU) and Ministry of Agriculture (MAGA), has developed a smartphone app named the School Feeding Management Application (SFMA), which encourages family farmers to particate in the market and facilitate transactions. The app aims to connect schools and registered suppliers and improve procurement processes. Before introducing the app to all schools nationwide, the WFP Guatemala country office initiated a pilot programme to assess its operational feasibility. As part of the pilot programme, the WFP Office of Evaluation, in partnership with the World Bank’s Development Impact department (DIME), conducted a pilot impact evaluation to document the causal impacts of the app on procurement practices. The pilot impact evaluation was launched to inform the potential scale-up of the application and the feasibility of an impact evaluation that would assess home-grown school feeding’s impact on farmers’ income and agricultural practices.
