This paper was developed collaboratively with the Â鶹ÊÓƵ¡¯s Regional Bureau for Asia and the Pacific based in Bangkok (RBB) between July 2022 and May 2023. The paper responds to a desire by Â鶹ÊÓƵ (Â鶹ÊÓƵ) to strengthen disability inclusion across its school-based feeding programmes. To date, disability inclusive school-based feeding programmes have been extremely limited in number and in scope, both within and external to Â鶹ÊÓƵ.

Where available, this paper draws on examples observed during field visits to both Lao PDR and Nepal
