- W248592040 abstract "In recent years the World Bank and other donors have been instrumental in the establishment of various types of social funds for the financing of grass roots development activities designed most often to ease the dislocations accompanying economic restructuring. Nutrition activities are broadly recognized as a potentially important component of social funds because of the high premium these funds place on social assistance activities, because well operated nutrition activities are structurally targeted to neediest population groups, and because nutrition sub-projects in social funds may represent useful means for a government to figure out what works at the community level for purposes of subsequent national programs. Although nutrition and/or household food security has been included in roughly half of those social funds initiated thus far primarily in Latin America and Africa, these components often have been more traditional than innovative. Also of concern is the relatively small proportion of existing or proposed social funds in Africa that include significant nutrition activities. The problem in most social funds appears to be some combination of inadequately expressed demand, the perceived difficulty and length of time necessary to launch effective nutrition activities, inadequate staff to deal adequately with project design, implementation and monitoring, and the problem of recurring costs and sustainability when food distribution is involved. The paper suggests that social funds offer a unique and somewhat rare opportunity for demand driven, community-based activity with high levels of community participation; that a broad range of attractive opportunities for community-based activities exist and, with adequate staff, can be incorporated into social funds; and that this opportunity generally should not be sacrificed even when opportunities exist and, with adequate staff, can be incorporated into social funds; and that this opportunity generally should not be sacrificed even when opportunities exist for centrally-operated programs. At the same time, experience indicates that purely demand driven nutrition projects may not have the strategic soundness of top-down activities nor be at all well targeted toward those population groups likely to be at greatest risk of malnutrition." @default.
