Publisher's Synopsis

This book reviews initiatives that link demand for food from institutions such as schools and hospitals to broader development objectives, drawing lessons from successful approaches in Brazil and elsewhere. In developing countries, institutional food procurement programmes (IFPPs) are increasingly viewed as means to integrate small farmers into formal food systems.The analysis concludes with a programmatic framework to help the public sector to shape and implement IFPPs.
