Publication: Cost-benefit Analysis São Tomé and Príncipe
São Tomé and Príncipe conducted the “Zero Hunger” Strategic Review in 2018, in the context of the country’s government efforts and the World Food Programme’s mandate for a transition towards a nationally managed national school feeding programme. Among the conclusions and recommendations of the document, there is the need for a cost-benefit analysis of the National School Food and Health Programme (PNASE) and this is the focus of this publication. The analysis focuses on PNASE’s cost components and analyses the potential benefits brought by the Programme and the current and real costs of investing in school meals in São Tomé and Príncipe within the current framework.
