ABSTRACT
The formula is simple: food attracts hungry children to school. And education broadens their options, helping to lift them out of poverty. When we launched the campaign, we knew that serving nutritious food at school would improve attendance and school performance. What we didn't project was just how important School Feeding would become as a platform for launching major health initiatives. ‘Each child is everyone's child.’ – this East African saying captures the thinking behind the Global School Feeding Campaign.
