The United Nations World Food Programme is the world’s largest humanitarian agency fighting hunger worldwide. The mission of WFP is to help the world achieve Zero Hunger in our lifetimes. Every day, WFP works worldwide to ensure that no child goes to bed hungry and that the poorest and most vulnerable, particularly women and children, can access the nutritious food they need.
These jobs are found in Regional Bureaux (RBs), Country Offices (COs), Area/Field Offices (AOs/FOs). The job holders typically report to a Programme Policy Officer or the designate. At this level, job holders are responsible for the completion of a range of specialized and/or standardized processes and activities requiring some interpretation of standard guidelines and practices. Job holders are able to recommend a course of action to staff at various levels and may allocate tasks to other support staff. They work under minimum supervision, perform basic analyses and compile reports to support information consistency and smooth implementation of programmes/projects.
The overall objective of WFP in Mozambique is to support the government in achieving the Sustainable Development Goal 2 (SDG2 – End hunger, achieve food security and improved nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture). Based on national development priorities, WFP Country Strategic Plan (2G CSP) 2022-2027 aims to support long-term recovery and resilience and contribute to addressing the underlying causes of food insecurity and malnutrition in Mozambique.
School feeding is increasingly recognized as a major investment in both human capital and in local economies which has accelerated country-led demand. It is seen as playing an important role not only in emergency contexts but also in social stability, peace-building and national development.
In Mozambique, the National School Feeding Program (PRONAE) was approved in 2013 by the Council of Ministers. The program aims to reduce in a sustainable way, the negative impact of food insecurity and malnutrition in the Education sector, namely school enrolment, school dropout, absenteeism and school failure. PRONAE is centered on three main pillars: (1) Improvement of nutritional and health status of students, (2) Food and nutrition education in schools and (3) Development of skills for agricultural and livestock production. Evidence suggests that well-designed school feeding programmes can promote macronutrient and micronutrient adequacy in children’s diets leading to enhanced nutrition and health, decreased morbidity, and increased learning capacities. Therefore, within the scope of strengthening the pillar (2) Food and nutrition education in schools; MINEDH with its implementing partner World Food Program (WFP) aim to strengthen the “Child Participation and Action in Nutrition (PCAAN)” approach developed and piloted in Tete Province whose impact was appreciated and considered feasible for its introduction even in a pilot way in more schools in the country.
This approach is centered on empowering primary school children in basic nutrition subjects by supporting them to learn and share nutrition and hygiene messages within the school and within the community, making them become ambassadors for good nutrition in the schools, families, communities and finally, influencing change.
Under the supervision of the Head of Field Office, and Co-Supervisor by the School Feeding deputy activity manager and Nutrition and HIV unit, the PA will perform specialized and/or standardized policy and programme-related processes and activities to support the effective delivery of assistance packages.
