Using food-for-work programmes

Context

In food-for-work activities, food is used as an incentive or part-payment for beneficiaries who participate in various projects.

Implementation

In certain World Food Programme (WFP) activities, villagers receive food rations in exchange for work as varied as: planting trees to reforest an eroded mountain-side; building a community library, making saleable crafts and building water cisterns.
