During the evaluation, the UN World Food Programme prepared an analytical review of the current state of school feeding in Kyrgyzstan, which analyses the programme's compliance with current political and legal norms.
A draft roadmap with recommendations for further improvement of the school feeding programme was also presented at the meeting. The issues of public policy, financial sustainability, institutional coordination and community involvement were important aspects for improving the system.
