Today, Minister of State for Federal Education and Professional Training Ms Wajiha Qamar addressed strategic dialogue on advancing Pakistan’s commitments for School meals. School meals are not just about food they are about equity, access, and opportunity. A single nutritious meal can bring children to school, improve attendance, keep them healthy, and give families the hope of a brighter future. Pakistan has already seen encouraging results from pilot programmes, with enrolment and daily attendance increasing significantly. Building on this success, we are moving forward with: “Investing in school meals is investing in children’s dreams and Pakistan’s prosperity”.
