The new Codex Trust Fund, or CTF2, was officially launched on 27 June. The first countries in which implementation will take place under CTF2 are Ghana, Kyrgyzstan, Madagascar and Senegal. Many other countries submitted strong applications and will benefit from ongoing consultations with FAO/WHO to strengthen their applications prior to resubmission in subsequent rounds.

Building on the success of the first Codex Trust Fund, FAO and WHO launched a successor initiative to the Codex Trust Fund (CTF2) in January 2016. In the next 12 years, multi-annual support will be provided to over 100 countries to strengthen their capacity for full and effective engagement in Codex. Read the founding Project Document for more details.

在阿布贾召开的联邦和各州部长及学校供膳利益相关者的一次特别会议上，尼日利亚副总统Yemi Osinbajo正式启动了该国的全国家庭种植学校供膳计划。

该家庭种植学校供膳计划是总金额5 000亿奈拉的“社会投资计划”的一部分，布哈里政府宣布的这项计划旨在解决贫困问题并改善儿童和其他弱势群体的健康和教育水平。该计划的学校供膳部分全面落实之后，目的是支持各州向2 400多万在校儿童集体提供膳食，这将成为非洲最大的学校供膳计划。
