Burkina Faso case study: School feeding initiatives in the Central Sahel

The Central Sahel countries have been affected by an unprecedented food crisis due to protracted conflict, the global economic crisis and the effects of climate change. This report details how Plan International and its partners have implemented innovative school feeding initiatives as part of our response. In a crisis context, school feeding interventions help to keep children in school, giving them good learning conditions while improving their nutritional status. Moreover, school attendance protects children against various types of rights violations, especially girls who are more exposed to gender-based violence in times of crisis.
