Report on School Food Production And Income Generation in Rural Schools in Zambia

This report summarises the outputs of the data collection and analysis undertaken during the period 19th October – 12 November 2008. This exercise was to inform the school feeding study contracted out by the Jesuit Centre for Theological Research (JCTR). This report will in turn inform the formulation of the school feeding manual for Zambia. The collected data will be used for two purposes. Firstly, it will be used to document the practice of school feeding programmes and the lessons of best practice generated therein for both current and future school feeding programmes. Secondly, the data that was collected will also inform the formulation of a generic manual on school feeding programmes. This manual will contain a menu of options for school feeding programmes from which the schools can choose and adapt for their local programmes to best reflect their environment.
