“…Analyzing the composition of the operating inventories of the studied facilities allowed us to diagnose an important pattern in the food banks performances. The purchase of food from family farming with government resources, through PAA, was verified in half of the Brazilian food banks, but especially in the public ones, corroborating a practice identified by the second food bank evaluation survey [ 31 ] and by Tenuta and Teixeira [ 39 ]. Such a pattern deserves attention, because as the food purchases grow in importance within the food banks, these units deviate from their primary objective of combating food losses and wastes.…”

In recent decades food banks have become a worldwide response to the contradicting the coexistence of food losses and waste, on the one hand, and hunger and food insecurity on the other. In Brazil, food banks had a rapid expansion, becoming the object of public policy on Food and Nutrition Security and of non-profit private institutions. Our study presents an unprecedented overview of all the food banks currently active in the Brazilian territory, discussing their performances and perspectives. We conducted descriptive research, aiming to characterize the number, spatial distribution, performance, and modalities of operation of the Brazilian food banks. We mapped 217 active food banks and they all participated in the study. The results revealed the important capillarity of the food banks, which exist in all 27 Brazilian federative units, but also demonstrate the potential and need for expansion. Most of the Brazilian food banks has commercial establishments as their largest donor partners and have fruits and vegetables as their most donated items. They mostly complement the feeding of families at social risk and children served by social institutions. Food and nutrition education actions are offered by all the studied units to donor partners and beneficiary institutions and families.

Esta é uma revisão de literatura que teve por objetivo sistematizar a produção científica e bibliográfica especializada acerca da avaliação de bancos de alimentos públicos, de acordo com os aspectos relativos ao seu funcionamento. As buscas foram realizadas a partir de bases e repositórios científicos e de sites governamentais, de instituições públicas e da sociedade civil, cujas agendas estão relacionadas à Segurança Alimentar e Nutricional, no período de 2010 a 2020. Foram localizadas 240 publicações e, após exclusão dos estudos que não atendiam aos critérios de inclusão, seis estudos permaneceram na seleção. Foram identificados oito aspectos avaliados: gestão; público atendido e entidades beneficiadas; articulações; doadores; infraestrutura; alimentos; controle higiênico-sanitário; ações complementares. Os resultados dos estudos apontaram: baixa institucionalidade dos bancos de alimentos junto ao poder público; recursos humanos insuficientes, insustentáveis e com alta rotatividade; relação com entidades beneficiadas limitada à doação de alimentos; ações educativas principalmente de capacitação para manipuladores de alimentos; fragilidade na relação com doadores; necessidade de melhorias na infraestrutura; inadequações às regulamentações higiênico-sanitárias; e forte relação com o Programa de Aquisição de Alimentos. Os estudos de avaliação contribuíram com a identificação de pontos críticos para o avanço e sustentabilidade dos bancos de alimentos no país.

Public infrastructure for food and nutrition security in brazil: fufilling the constitutional commitment to the human right to adequate food

et al. 2022

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Food insecurity is a critical global problem with social and public health consequences. In Brazil, access to adequate food is a fundamental human right guaranteed under the country's Constitution since 2010. As such, the State assumes the distinct and complementary obligations to respect, protect, promote and provide the Right to Adequate Food. The aim of this study is to present actions related to the "provision" dimension that have been developed as part of a network of public infrastructure strategies for food and nutrition security in Brazil. Through an exploratory, analytical literature review, the paper focuses on the operational designs and logistics of three main strategies: Food Banks, Community Kitchens, and Popular Restaurants. The Brazilian experience indicates that public actions are necessary, especially considering the urgency for those groups living with hunger and poverty. While similar programs can be found in other countries in South and North America, they are mostly offered by civil society organizations, and have not advanced toward public institutionalization. In fact, private programs are criticized for negating governments' obligation and responsibility in this area. Brazil's experience sheds light on public initiatives in meeting the State's obligations towards the Right to Adequate Food.
