Multilateral Food Aid

D. John Shaw

Chapter 11 in Sir Hans Singer, 2002, pp 98-102 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract With the failure to establish SUNFED, Singer and others turned their attention not only to the UN Special Fund but to other possible sources of soft financing for developing countries which might be provided through the UN system, including food aid. He was to play an important role both in the creation of the UN World Food Programme (WFP), initially as a three-year experimental programme (1963–65), and in its continuation thereafter.
