Can Africa afford school meal programmes?

Africa Daily

About this episode

‘’When the bush is on fire, the chameleon must abandon the walking styles of its ancestors.’’

Save the Children Fund says international aid cuts have significantly impacted school feeding programs in Africa, affecting millions of children who rely on these meals.

Across the continent 86 million children benefit from subsidised programmes which make sure that even those below the poverty line can get at least one nutritious meal a day.

In this episode of Africa Daily podcast Peter Musembi explores new research which suggests ways countries can fund their own programmes – and become more resilient.

He speaks to Betty Kibaara who works on school feeding programmes at the Rockefeller Foundation - which also co-produced the report.
