Enhancing impact through collective action
Success means shared learning, strong networks, clear targets, government commitment, and better nutrition and education outcomes — with the child at the centre of all progress.
Abstract
School feeding programmes can be powerful tools for improved human capital development and integrated development. Well-nourished children learn better, face less exclusion and less dropouts thereby improving socio-economic outcomes. Collaborative efforts are required to unpack outstanding questions, develop tailored programmes and realise the full potential of HGSF.
This document was first developed as prereading material for the Regional Homegrown School Feeding Workshop. It is now updated, including perspectives from the workshop, for a wider audience.
