“…School feeding programs have been and will continue to be essential for the provision of nutrients, improvement of academic performance, and the promotion of a healthy lifestyle in LMICs. Therefore, there is a strong political will to continue to fund new programs and to expand on existing programs [28]. The design and implementation of school feeding programs in LMICs should be based on the established benefits of such programs on specific educational and health outcomes of children and adolescents, for which an updated evidence base is needed.…”

“…The report also highlighted a need to strengthen the evidence base on the potential benefits of school feeding. Drake et al reviewed the design and implementation of 14 school feeding programs in LMICs [28]. They concluded that there is no onesize-fits-all model for school feeding programs, given that different countries approach school feeding programs with different objectives.…”

Background: School feeding programs are beneficial for the physical, mental, and psychosocial development of school-age children and adolescents, particularly those in low-and middle-income countries (LMICs). While school feeding programs are ubiquitous in LMICs, the specific benefits of school feeding programs are unclear. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis is to evaluate the impacts of school feeding programs on the educational and health outcomes of children and adolescents in LMICs. Methods: Rigorously designed interventional studies on the impacts of school feeding on nutritional and health outcomes of children and adolescents receiving primary or secondary education in LMICs will be included. The following information sources were used to identify relevant published or unpublished studies: MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, the Cochrane Library, and governmental or organizational websites. The risk of bias of randomized and non-randomized studies will be assessed using the Cochrane Risk of Bias tool and the ROBINS-I tool, respectively. Two reviewers will independently conduct the selection of studies, data extraction, and assessment of the risk of bias. A narrative synthesis of all the included studies will be provided. Meta-analyses will be performed whenever appropriate. Heterogeneity of effects will be assessed by I 2 , subgroup analyses, and meta-regression. The certainty of evidence for each outcome will be assessed using the Grading of Recommendation, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) approach. Discussion: The design and implementation of school feeding programs in LMICs should be based on the understanding of the benefits of such programs. This work will provide a crucial evidence base for the educational and health benefits of school feeding on children and adolescents in LMICs.

“…La présente section analyse l'incidence des politiques d'éducation sur les migrations et les modes de transfert de fonds en Côte d'Ivoire. (Drake et al, 2016 ;PNuD, 2010). Comme évoqué au chapitre 4, l'investissement public dans le système éducatif a depuis augmenté, et atteint aujourd'hui un niveau supérieur à la moyenne régionale.…”

“…Le programme de cantines scolaires relève des politiques éducatives les plus importantes dans le pays. En Côte d'Ivoire, ce type de programme remonte à plusieurs décennies, et avait été lancé pour contribuer à l'objectif d'éducation universelle (Drake et al, 2016). En avril 2012, le ministère de l'Éducation nationale, à travers la Direction nationale des cantines de Côte d'Ivoire, a formulé la Stratégie nationale d'alimentation scolaire en Côte d'Ivoire pour la période 2012-17.…”

“…Avec pour slogan « une école, une cantine, un groupement », la stratégie d'alimentation scolaire entend assurer l'établissement d'une cantine scolaire au sein de chaque école, approvisionnée grâce à la production agricole locale. Le programme applique un ciblage géographique fondé sur quatre indicateurs liés à l'insécurité alimentaire, la prévalence de la malnutrition chronique, le taux de scolarisation et les niveaux de pauvreté (Drake et al, 2016). Le projet vise à augmenter les taux de fréquentation scolaire en milieu rural, en particulier chez les filles.…”

Discretion on the frontlines of the implementation of the Ghana School Feeding Programme: Street‐Level Bureaucrats adapting to austerity in northern Ghana

Ghana's economy faltered in 2012, culminating in the country requesting a bailout from the International Monetary Fund (IMF). Typical of IMF financial assistance, the approval of this bailout was hinged on the government agreeing to implement some conditionalities. In fulfilment of the IMF conditionalities, the government in 2015 adopted fiscal austerity. Using Michael Lipsky's Street-Level Bureaucrat conceptual framework, this paper investigates the implications of Ghana's fiscal austerity programme for the implementation of the country's school feeding programme.Specifically, the paper examines the coping strategies adopted by the service providers to endure the challenges of delivering the programme within the climate of austerity. The findings highlight how financial challenges can lead to inadequate service delivery, as the service providers adopt a host of discretionary practices such as compromising the quality of meals served, the delivery of cheaperto-prepare diets and an inconsistent service delivery regime.
