Project Activities
WFP’s prevention of stunting programme in Mugu and Jumla districts was implemented through the blanket
supplementary feeding programme (BSFP) modality and lasted from June to August 2016. The programme entailed

services, such as screening, outpatient therapeutic clinic services, follow-up visits and counselling, along with the
supplementary food rations. Although WFP’s corporate recommendations stipulate that in a stunting prevention
programme, children receive Super Cereal Plus and pregnant and lactating women receive Super Cereal, the

terms of people actually reached were both affected by certain factors. Following the first round of dist
