The School Glass of Milk Program is a national initiative established by law that guarantees the minimum consumption of two glasses of fluid milk of national production per week to students of preschool and basic education in public educational centers. The program articulates national milk production with school feeding through a supply mechanism that involves associations, cooperatives and independent producers. The milk is industrially processed with UHT technology and distributed directly to schools, replacing the powdered milk that was previously delivered. The program has legal support through Decree No. 304 of 2013 "Law of the School Glass of Milk Program" and benefits more than 2,200 Salvadoran ranchers organized in about 30 associative groups.

The Green, Social and Sustainable Bonds Framework of the Dominican Republic establishes the country's commitments and obligations for thematic sovereign bond issuances aimed at financing environmental sectoral strategies, sustainable transition and social investment. This framework, developed under ICMA principles, identifies nine green categories including low-carbon transport, renewable energy, climate change adaptation, biodiversity conservation and natural resource management, plus eight social categories focused on food security, education, health, housing, employment and inequality reduction. The document establishes evaluation and selection processes for eligible expenditures through the Thematic Bonds Commission, fund management systems and external reporting and verification requirements. The framework aligns with the National Development Strategy 2030, the Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) and the Sustainable Development Goals, seeking to mobilize resources towards investments with high impact on mitigation, adaptation and biodiversity conservation.

Barbados 2035 is a comprehensive investment plan developed by the Bridgetown Initiative Unit that establishes a roadmap for investing US$11.6 billion until 2035 across 12 strategic priorities that build social, economic, and climate resilience. The plan is grounded in the six missions of Mission Barbados and defines quantifiable targets such as achieving 100% renewable energy by 2035, reducing non-communicable diseases and crime by 50%, guaranteeing universal access to clean water and nutritious food, and creating 10,000 quality jobs with average GDP growth of 5% annually. The plan identifies that approximately 60% (US$6.6 billion) of required investment will come from the private sector, while US$5 billion needs public financing, leaving a gap of US$3.6 billion requiring support from development partners and blended finance mechanisms. Implementation focuses on catalytic projects in the first 3-5 years that unlock private investment, strengthen institutional capacity, and transform Barbados from a small island state to a large-ocean sustainable, prosperous, and inclusive state.

The TCP/ELS/3802 project developed a national food and nutrition education strategy to address the triple burden of malnutrition in El Salvador, including micronutrient deficiencies, chronic and acute malnutrition, as well as overweight and obesity. The initiative strengthened technical capacities of MINEDUCYT and the educational community through virtual diplomas that trained 2,650 teachers across the country's 14 departments. A draft School Feeding Law and the Healthy and Sustainable School Feeding Strategy (EAESS) were developed to institutionalize the right to adequate food for children and adolescents. The project promoted healthy school environments by integrating food and nutrition education, school gardens, diversified menus, and linkages with local markets to improve sustainable eating behaviors.
