Expanded and Enhanced Home-Grown School-Feeding Programme
Description
The Government of Sierra Leone will progressively scale up the home-grown school feeding program from covering 25% of pre-primary and primary school students to 100% by 2030; increasing local and fortified content in school meals to 50% in 2030; and ensuring at least 50% of school feeding interventions use clean cooking interventions and integrate complimentary activities by 2030 (prioritizing the most vulnerable areas). In the same period, Government will explore different school and institutional feeding models for improved sustainability.
