Poor nutritional choices and unhealthy behaviors are considered responsible for the rise in childhood overweight and obesity and may reinforce each other, creating a vicious cycle.

This review examines and describes current school food and nutrition initiatives within the literature that aim to promote healthier, sustainable diets within the Pacific Islands region.

In this brief, we propose a framework to conceptualize gender considerations in home-grown school feeding programs to inform research, practice, and policy.

En 2020, le WWF France a lancé le programme Ecole Jardinière pour encourager, diffuser et pérenniser la pratique des jardins pédagogiques dans les établissements scolaires grâce à des contenus pédagogiques alignés sur les programmes scolaires et des fiches d'activités clés en main.

School feeding programmes (SFPs) are widely implemented to address child poverty, food insecurity and malnutrition, yet evidence on their influence on children’s health outcomes is limited.

The contextual data available through TIMSS 2023 can be used to derive patterns of well-being and school climate, which allow exploring systems-level questions about the quality of national education systems.

This study examined school feeding policy objectives across multiple countries, drawing on data from the Global Survey of School Meal Programs, and identified 23 relevant policies.

School feeding programs are an increasingly important and cost-effective nutritional backstop in a majority of countries, but the climate resilience of this social safety net is not well-characterized.

These guidelines provide practical direction on school meals and costing; procurement and food management; meal preparation and serving; monitoring and reporting; and school feeding management at school, district, and national levels.

With this guide, UNESCO-IBE proposes to support a collective learning process at school level, aimed at promoting health and well-being.
