An Ivorian entrepreneur has introduced a school feeding initiative aimed at improving nutrition for pupils in Abidjan. The project responds to concerns that many students attend school without proper meals, affecting their ability to learn.
By providing balanced and affordable food, the programme seeks to support both health and academic performance. Meals are prepared using locally sourced ingredients to ensure freshness and sustainability. Teachers and school administrators report better concentration and participation among students. The initiative also creates business opportunities for local farmers and food vendors.
Parents have welcomed the programme as a relief from the daily burden of providing school meals. Organisers hope the model can be scaled up to reach more schools across Côte d’Ivoire.
