Promotion of Sustainable School Feeding

This operation has been modified as per budget revision 5 (see below)

Economic turmoil in the past two decades has hampered the capacity of the Government of Togo to deliver basic social services. A low-income, least-developed and food-deficit country, Togo is in a transitional recovery phase following years of absence of international development partners and is now focused on setting an agenda and developing a policy framework for social protection activities. Household food insecurity and undernutrition remain pressing concerns, particularly in the northern regions.

This budget revision 5 proposes a fifteen-month extension of DEV 200304 from 1 January 2017 to 31 March 2018 to pursue capacity strengthening activities identified by the Systems Approach for Better Education Results (SABER) exercise conducted earlier in June 2016 and enable WFP to provide support to the government of Togo to implement the action plan following the SABER exercise.
