National Commitments

Declaration signed by the Ministry of Education and Higher Education
• Develop a long-term plan to increase the provision of snacks or full meals in schools for all children, especially the most vulnerable.
• Developing a national strategy and policy on school meals, including them in the educational strategy, and coordinating with the concerned authorities in cooperation with communities and stakeholders, as well as adopting guidelines on a healthy school environment and nutritional standards.
• Develop a new methodology within the framework of the school health programme, to include school meals with other complementary health and environmental activities, for example, ensuring the cleanliness of the water and sanitation system and the obligation to give the necessary vaccinations, as well as caring for the establishment of school gardens or the provision of green spaces as much as possible.
