Enshrining school meals into law in Cabo Verde

By Ana Laura Touza, FAO Representative in Cabo Verde FAO’s support helps enhance resilience, nutrition, health and hygiene education for children, families and communities. ©FICASE 20/04/2021 20 April 2021, Praia – The small island developing state of Cabo Verde, off the west African coast, faces recurrent droughts and other environmental and socio-economic vulnerabilities. Recognizing the extent of needs, a national school feeding programme began in 1979 with the support of the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP). After more than 30 years of implementation and 100 percent of primary schools covered, the Government of Cabo Verde took over funding and managing the programme, with the Ministries of Education, Health and Agriculture, and local municipalities and non-governmental organizations.

Japan donates USD 6 5 million to WFP to stem food insecurity in South Sudan

[Photo WFP] The United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) has welcomed a contribution of USD 6.5 million from the Government of Japan to mitigate food security in South Sudan. This contribution is timely at the start of the lean season when more than 7.2 million people in South Sudan are expected to face acute food shortages, WFP said in a press release. This latest contribution consists of USD 4.5 million for life-saving food assistance to people who are severely food insecure and USD 2 million to restore livelihoods and enhance resilience. “WFP will use this contribution to support 115,000 people in Jonglei, Warrap, Northern Bahr el Ghazal and Lakes States, where food insecurity has reached catastrophic levels due to continuing violence, two years of excessive flooding, displacement and the loss of livelihoods, livestock, infrastructure and homes that have left millions of people highly vulnerable and unable to provide for themselves,” the statement said.

WFP launches an Empty Feed campaign this Ramadan - World

WFP launches an Empty Feed campaign this Ramadan Format CAIRO - The United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) launched this weekend a Ramadan campaign on social media to raise awareness on the suffering of 690 million hungry people around the world. The campaign kicked off with “empty” posts by celebrities and influencers in the Arab world and beyond. Top UN officials, supporters and staff also started sharing empty posts on Instagram feeds using hashtag #EmptyFeed throughout the month. “This Ramadan, we thought maybe we can FEED more people by hijacking Instagram FEEDs; all you need to do is share an empty post on your Instagram feed. It can be an empty plate, box, wall, plain background,“ says WFP Head of Communications in the MENA region Abeer Etefa. “While each one of us knows their day fast will end at dusk, millions around the world know no end to theirs.”
