Summary:

This Guidance Note is a practical tool for practitioners who want to integrate the right to food into food and nutrition security programs. It briefly explains the conceptual, legal and operational dimensions of the right to food. The Guidance Note then looks at four key entry points for integrating the right to food into food and nutrition security programs: roles and responsibilities of stakeholders, legal aspects, monitoring, and recourse and claim mechanisms. It uses specific examples and cases to illustrate how this can be done.
