Sub-focus Area 3.3.2 Improving the availability and affordability of food that contributes to healthy diets through sustainable food systems

Recommendation Number: 3.3.2.e

Governments, intergovernmental organizations, private sector and other relevant stakeholders should facilitate the affordability of healthy diets through sustainable food systems for poor households through social protection programmes, such as vouchers for nutritious foods, cash transfers, school feeding programmes or other community meals programmes. These should be linked to clear nutritional outcomes, aligned with national food-based dietary guidelines and adapted to the needs of different age groups.
