WFP and the Government of Honduras are providing a daily ration to nearly 1.4 million Honduran school children.

School Meals-Working Together to Nourish Bodies and Minds

WFP Honduras has the third largest school feeding programme in the world. At the Simon Bolivar Primary School in Southern Honduras, parents, teachers, and community members work together to demonstrate how a successful project is run.

 

Overview

With one in every four children suffering from chronic malnutrition, one doesn't have to look far in Honduras to find a child in desperate need of food. Food insecurity does not only affect children. It also impacts all sectors of this country, especially the rural population, 75 percent of whom live in extreme poverty.
