In this article, a case of governmental management of school catering (Alimentação Escolar - AE) in the State of Paraná is discussed based on the transformations undergone by the local food supply agenda. The outcome of political decisions on school catering that involve family farming as an strategic element in the local/regional agrifood system consolidation and the ability of such actions to promote proper feeding are stressed. From a food and nutrition security standpoint, emphasis is placed on the history of the State’s school catering program. Advances and setbacks in national and state policies and their impact on the human right of access to proper food and sovereignty are also analyzed.
