The Special Programme for Food Security (SPFS) Responding to New Challenges
This paper traces the evolution of the Special Programme for Food Security (SPFS) over the past eight years. It notes that the SPFS has remained confined to a pilot mode in almost all of the 70% countries in which it is operational. The paper draws attention however to the recent increase in the number of developing countries which are preparing to embark on nationwide food security programmes in line with the commitments which they reaffirmed at the World Food Summit: five years later. This new generation of SPFS projects which include the full range of activities recommended in the Anti-Hunger Programme (AHP) is broadening demands on the Organization for services. The paper suggests how FAO might respond to these demands in partnership with other institutions committed to ending hunger.
