Publication: Country Case: Bangladesh
The document, produced in partnership with WFP Bangladesh and the Government of Bangladesh, details the country’s journey in developing its national school feeding programme and the role of the WFP Centre of Excellence in this process. The supply of school meals in Bangladesh began in 2001, when WFP partnered with the government to launch a school feeding programme in the country’s most vulnerable areas. In 2012, with support from the Centre of Excellence, a delegation from Bangladesh made a high-level study visit to Brazil to learn about the country’s experience with school feeding and its solid institutional framework for food and nutrition security.
