This chapter explores Brazil’s cooperation with Africa and further connects the regional development debate with geopolitical studies by looking at the specific case of school feeding in Mozambique. Food security as defined by the United Nations is a situation where all people, at all times, have physical, social, and economic access to sufficient, safe, and nutritious food that meets their dietary needs and food preferences for an active and healthy life. Food security is closely related to rural development, agrarian change, de-peasantisation, hunger, and processes of modernisation. Employing notions of “horizontality” and “adaptability,” we seek to critically unpack how initiatives are built upon and enabled by Brazil’s effort to revive, rearticulate, and reframe its historical connections and socioeconomic similarities with the African continent, and how their materialisation on the ground is often subject to negotiations and contestations by local actors.
