This case study reviews the World Food Programme’s (WFP’s) support to social protection in India, specifically the country’s food and nutrition-focused social protection programmes, since 2014. It assesses how WFP has supported various building blocks of the national social protection system, focusing on strengthening service delivery for the Targeted Public Distribution System (TPDS). This is a light-touch exercise, undertaken through a rapid literature review and interviews with WFP staff. It is part of a suite of country case studies undertaken by researchers at the Institute of Development Studies (IDS) for WFP, creating a portfolio of learning on WFP’s work on supporting social protection around the world.
