Progress Report

By marshaling resources for food security and by improving the way we do development, Feed the Future is already making a difference in people’s lives. Download our first progress report (pdf, 4kb) to read more about the progress achieved by the Feed the Future initiative from May 2009 through May 2012. This report does not provide a comprehensive list of Feed the Future investments, but rather uses select examples that illustrate the scope of Feed the Future investments across the countries in which we work. Learn more about how we're doing development differently and holding ourselves accountable in our first Feed the Future scorecard
