💨 Abstract

The Global Education Monitoring Report by UNESCO states that only 60% of countries have regulations governing school food and beverages. Only 29% of these countries have measures to restrict food marketing in schools. The report suggests a need for a comprehensive approach to school nutrition, combining school meals, nutrition education, physical activity, and extracurricular initiatives. It also emphasizes the need for capacity building and research into the linkages between education and nutrition.
