Unlocking potential: the impact of school meals in Africa

Africa is home to the youngest population in the world — 60% of its people are under 25. Their potential will shape the continent’s future. Yet every day, millions of children arrive at school hungry. Learning becomes harder. Dreams feel further out of reach. School meals are changing that. A single plate of food can help a child concentrate, stay in school, and build the foundation for a better life — for themselves, their families, and their communities.
