【 摘 要 】

In 2009, the World Bank (WB) and the World Food Programme (WFP), in collaborationwith the Partnership for Child Development (PCD), published an analysis called RethinkingSchool Feeding. The analysis was undertaken to better understand the growing demandfrom countries for school feeding programmes that was sparked by the food, fuel, andfinancial crises of 2008.This report seeks to build on the 2009 analysis and begin a systematic process to betterunderstand the strengths and challenges of school feeding programmes globally. It presents the current status of our understanding of school feeding.Information was drawn from a global survey conducted by WFP in early 2012 and a seriesof case studies and peer-reviewed technical working papers undertaken in collaborationwith partners. The analysis led to the identification of new areas that require more focusedattention. The report highlights these areas and outlines the current research agenda onwhich WFP and its partners are currently collaborating.
