How to calculate the value of goods and food distributed to children, the homeless or other target groups?
Indicators on the value of food and goods distributed to children, the homeless or other target groups do not need to refer to food effectively consumed by these groups. They refer to the value of food/goods distributed for their consumption. Beneficiaries should be able to know to whom the food they distribute is intended. This information should be calculated based on information in purchase documents, administrative registers or internal guidelines used to compose food packages. For instance, food packages given out to families with children could be determined based on ratios used by beneficiaries to create the packages according to the number of adults or children within the households.
