This workshop was the second in a series of three online events scheduled this year as part of the project. The first workshop, held on August 29, focused on institutions and public policies to strengthen family farmers.&#8221; The second workshop yesterday focused on local purchases linked to the school feeding programme.\u00a0 The workshop aimed to share Brazil\u2019s experiences and best practices, such as the National School Feeding Program (PNAE), which since 2009 has prioritized purchasing food from family farmers to supply schools.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">During the second workshop&#8217;s opening, Madame Feliciti Moungange, Director of School Feeding in the Republic of Congo, highlighted how the establishment of school canteens in the early 2000s was successful in bringing children back to school after armed conflicts and improving access to education in rural areas.

The Republic of Congo (Congo) is a resource-rich, lower middle-income, food-deficit country that produces only 30% of the national food requirements. The country has been experiencing a prolonged recession since 2015, exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. While Congo had not yet recovered from the socio-economic impact of the global pandemic, the war in Ukraine has led to a surge in food prices. The seriousness of this inflation was recognised by the Government, which developed a food crisis resilience plan on March 30, 2022. In Congo, 33.3% of the population is food insecure (4% of whom are severely food insecure) and 19.6% of children under the age of five suffer from chronic malnutrition. WFP's main activity in Republic of Congo is school feeding, implemented in 532 public primary schools. Thanks to the strong partnership between WFP and the Government and the continued support of donors, 173,171 children from 10 departments receive a nutritious meal every school day, with the dual aim of promoting school attendance and protecting the food security of vulnerable households. Through the home-grown school feeding approach (HGSF), WFP provided cash to 144 of the 532 schools to purchase food in nearby markets, contributing to local economic development. The school feeding programme is part of WFP's country strategic plan (2019-2024) to combine humanitarian aid and development assistance. This programme encourages families to send their children to school, ensures continuity in their education and provides them with a nutritious meal every day. The programme also provides capacity-building for national partners, with aim of the Ministry of Primary and Secondary Education and Literacy (MEPPSA) taking ownership of the programme via the Directorate of school feeding. The programme uses two models: the distribution of in-kind food and the supply of local products through cash transfers.

The Republic of Congo (Congo) is a resource-rich, lower middle-income, food-deficit country that produces only 30% of the national food requirements. The country has been experiencing a prolonged recession since 2015, exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. While Congo had not yet recovered from the socio-economic impact of the global pandemic, the war in Ukraine has led to a surge in food prices. The seriousness of this inflation was recognised by the Government, which developed a food crisis resilience plan on March 30, 2022. In Congo, 33.3% of the population is food insecure (4% of whom are severely food insecure) and 19.6% of children under the age of five suffer from chronic malnutrition. WFP's main activity in Republic of Congo is school feeding, implemented in 532 public primary schools. Thanks to the strong partnership between WFP and the Government and the continued support of donors, 173,171 children from 10 departments receive a nutritious meal every school day, with the dual aim of promoting school attendance and protecting the food security of vulnerable households. Through the home-grown school feeding approach (HGSF), WFP provided cash to 144 of the 532 schools to purchase food in nearby markets, contributing to local economic development. The school feeding programme is part of WFP's country strategic plan (2019-2024) to combine humanitarian aid and development assistance. This programme encourages families to send their children to school, ensures continuity in their education and provides them with a nutritious meal every day. The programme also provides capacity-building for national partners, with aim of the Ministry of Primary and Secondary Education and Literacy (MEPPSA) taking ownership of the programme via the Directorate of school feeding. The programme uses two models: the distribution of in-kind food and the supply of local products through cash transfers.
