PACR of a project (FY85-10/93) to improve the effectiveness of food assistance activities in Central America and Panama by establishing national coordination mechanisms and by upgrading the capacities of the Nutrition Institute of Central America and Panama (INCAP) and of national public and private agencies. Despite a delayed start-up, inadequate host government and agency commitment, and shifts in U.S. policy, the project produced nearly all of its planned outputs as well as some that were unplanned. In the planning and coordination component, nearly all of the regional meetings, workshops, and task forces were held. In the training and information component, targets for TA to INCAP were met or surpassed, while under the research component, most planned studies and assessments were carried out. Unplanned outputs included the development of food security strategies or policies in five countries, institutional assessments, special studies and evaluations on maternal/child health and targeted consumer subsidy programs, the development of a methodology for conducting operations research methodology at the strategic level, surveys of the nutritional impact of structural adjustment,
