How can we measure nutrition-sensitive social protection? Unpacking data, challenges, and opportunities to improve nutrition through school feeding programs

This webinar about measuring coverage of nutrition sensitive social protection and school feeding programs features speakers from Global Child Nutrition Foundation and the Bloomberg School of Public Health.

Description:

Social protection programs are important platforms for delivering nutrition interventions. Many countries have invested in school feeding programs to extend the reach of nutrition-sensitive social protection to children and their families. Join us for a discussion of the global landscape of school feeding programs and the development of metrics for assessing the coverage of nutrition-sensitive social protection programs. Presentations will showcase examples from the Global Survey of School Meal Programs©. Confirmed Speakers include Ayala Wineman (GCNF) and Nadia Akseer (JHSPH). Q&A moderated by Rebecca Heidkamp (JHSPH) will follow presentations.
