Descripción
School-based food and nutrition education (SFNE) represents a crucial opportunity to reach children, families and the broader school community in a regular and continuous way to foster lasting healthy food practices and capacities.
The consultation on “Stepping up School-based Food and Nutrition Education: Exploring Challenges, Finding Solutions and Building Partnerships,” organised by FAO in collaboration with the United Arab Emirates University was the first specialized global meeting of its kind. It provided stakeholders from different fields of expertise working with school-based programmes a platform to discuss challenges and define priorities, competencies and educational innovations with the main focus on SFNE.
Most importantly, the consultation launched a renewed vision, going beyond the integration of SFNE as stand-alone, disconnected and fragmented interventions and a largely academic requirement in schools.
This report provides a description of the consultation, the results achieved and the recommendations agreed on by the experts.
