This city school meals case study forms part of a collection led by the Research Consortium for School Health and Nutrition’s “Good Examples” Community of Practice in collaboration with Cities Feeding the Future Initiative.

The City School Meals Case Study of Montpellier serves to document how the municipal school meals programme is organized, funded, and monitored throughout the city. The objectives of this case study include presenting an introduction to the city profile, outlining the design and implementation of school feeding programmes, describing their monitoring and evaluation processes, and highlighting lessons learned, best practices, and challenges.

This case study is written as a working paper, and can be updated to reflect evolving circumstances.
