Home-Grown School Feeding (HGSF) programmes: Following the completion of three case studies in Southern Africa (Botswana, Namibia and South Africa), individual countries were sensitised to incorporate the Home-Grown School Feeding (HGSF) model into existing school feeding programmes, and ensuring that procurement for the programmes was locally sourced.
A mapping of existing school feeding programmes (both regular and Home-Grown-School Feeding HGSF models) in Africa was completed and shows that close to 90 per cent of countries have implemented school feeding programmes, with a growing number adopting the HGSF model.

Programme for Orphans and Vulnerable Children (OVC): Integrating the care and support of Orphans and Vulnerable Children (OVCs) into the implementation of Home-Grown-School-Feeding Programmes (HGSF) was advanced through a pilot programme in Kenya and Nigeria with the aim to ensure that OVCs are targeted for school feeding and given additional skills to prepare them to be more self-reliant. A situation analysis report for South Africa was completed as part of sharing best practices on OVC support.
