Report
This Global Education Monitoring Report highlights how equitable access to education depends on strong, long‑term policies that address both learning and the wider factors shaping children’s ability to attend school.
School meal programmes are a proven, scalable solution at the heart of this progress, boosting enrolment, reducing gender and poverty‑related disparities, and supporting children’s health and learning outcomes. By linking education with social protection and nutrition, school meals exemplify the coherent, child‑focused policies that help countries sustain change over decades, ensuring every learner can participate, thrive, and build a more resilient future.
