Some learning from the development programmes of BRAC, which are directed to the poor women to improve their food security is briefly highlighted in this paper. A long-term commitment to the very poor as well as targeted efforts supported by short-term food subsidy is required to improve their situation on a sustainable basis. Effective partnership between the government, NGOs and donors is a key to the success in increasing the current food security situation. 2020-01-06T05:31:51Z 2020-01-06T05:31:51Z 1999 Research report Hyder, S.
