ABOUT WFP The United Nations World Food Programme is the world's largest humanitarian agency fighting hunger worldwide. The mission of WFP is to help the world achieve Zero Hunger in our lifetimes. Every day, WFP works worldwide to ensure that no child goes to bed hungry and that the poorest and most vulnerable, particularly women and children, can access the nutritious food they need. PROJECT BACKGROUND The World Food Programme (WFP) is the food-aid arm of the United Nations and is committed to fighting hunger worldwide. WFP has been operational in India since 1963; however, the nature of support extended by WFP in India has evolved over a period of time from providing food to a more catalytic role in reducing vulnerability and eliminating food insecurity and malnutrition through technical assistance. WFP focusses on enhancing the systemic efficiency and nutritional effectiveness of the various food-based safety nets in support of the efforts of the Government of India and in partnership with the State governments. The role of the WFP Nutrition and School feeding unit in India is focussed on improving the nutritional effectiveness of the food-based safety nets. WFP in India is providing technical support to the Pradhan Mantri Poshan Shakti Nirman (PM POSHAN) to improve the nutritional effectiveness of the scheme through different interventions in a pilot to scale approach in several states. Establishment of school kitchen gardens (nutri-gardens) or SNGs are encouraged by the Ministry of Education to primarily enhance the diversity of school meals. This initiative is supported through various schemes and policies and the implementation has been largely left to the States and UTs. Despite its potential, the implementation of SNG varies significantly across states and schools. WFP has been piloting school kitchen gardens in Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan and Haryana for past few years. These pilot projects have demonstrated positive impacts both in terms of nutrition education and value add to existing school meals and have also been scaled up across states with government ownership and funding support. In this background, WFP will undertake a nation-wide mapping exercise of School Kitchen (Nutrition) Garden across the country, to identify best practices, gaps and challenges which will help design pilots and inform future scale-up of the initiative. The study will look into various aspects of the kitchen gardens, including production, management and sustainability (including community engagement), and its effectiveness both as an educational tool as well as means to add nutritional value to school meals. To conduct this exercise, WFP will hire the services of a Consultant. WFP has a zero-tolerance approach to conduct such as fraud, sexual exploitation and abuse, sexual harassment, abuse of authority and discrimination. All selected candidates will be expected to adhere to WFP’s standards of conduct and will therefore undergo rigorous background verification internally or through third parties. Selected candidates will also be required to provide additional information as part of the verification exercise. Misrepresentation of information provided during the recruitment process may lead to disqualification or termination of employment.

ABOUT WFP The United Nations World Food Programme is the world's largest humanitarian agency fighting hunger worldwide. The mission of WFP is to help the world achieve Zero Hunger in our lifetimes. Every day, WFP works worldwide to ensure that no child goes to bed hungry and that the poorest and most vulnerable, particularly women and children, can access the nutritious food they need. PROJECT BACKGROUND The World Food Programme (WFP) is the food-aid arm of the United Nations and is committed to fighting hunger worldwide. WFP has been operational in India since 1963; however, the nature of support extended by WFP in India has evolved over a period of time from providing food to a more catalytic role in reducing vulnerability and eliminating food insecurity and malnutrition through technical assistance. WFP focusses on enhancing the systemic efficiency and nutritional effectiveness of the various food-based safety nets in support of the efforts of the Government of India and in partnership with the State governments. The role of the WFP Nutrition and School feeding unit in India is focussed on improving the nutritional effectiveness of the food-based safety nets. WFP in India is providing technical support to the Pradhan Mantri Poshan Shakti Nirman (PM POSHAN) to improve the nutritional effectiveness of the scheme through different interventions in a pilot to scale approach in several states. Establishment of school kitchen gardens (nutri-gardens) or SNGs are encouraged by the Ministry of Education to primarily enhance the diversity of school meals. This initiative is supported through various schemes and policies and the implementation has been largely left to the States and UTs. Despite its potential, the implementation of SNG varies significantly across states and schools. WFP has been piloting school kitchen gardens in Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan and Haryana for past few years. These pilot projects have demonstrated positive impacts both in terms of nutrition education and value add to existing school meals and have also been scaled up across states with government ownership and funding support. In this background, WFP will undertake a nation-wide mapping exercise of School Kitchen (Nutrition) Garden across the country, to identify best practices, gaps and challenges which will help design pilots and inform future scale-up of the initiative. The study will look into various aspects of the kitchen gardens, including production, management and sustainability (including community engagement), and its effectiveness both as an educational tool as well as means to add nutritional value to school meals. To conduct this exercise, WFP will hire the services of a Consultant. WFP has a zero-tolerance approach to conduct such as fraud, sexual exploitation and abuse, sexual harassment, abuse of authority and discrimination. All selected candidates will be expected to adhere to WFP’s standards of conduct and will therefore undergo rigorous background verification internally or through third parties. Selected candidates will also be required to provide additional information as part of the verification exercise. Misrepresentation of information provided during the recruitment process may lead to disqualification or termination of employment.
