💡 What we eat fuels how we learn. What we learn shapes how we eat.

➡️ Yet, too often, education and nutrition policies remain disconnected, despite their influence on well-being throughout life. ✅ #SchoolMeals are proven to tackle both.

📌 Join the @UNESCO #GEMReport, @LSHTM & @R4SchoolHealth on July 1 to explore the #LearnToEatWell paper & how school meals can bring value.
