The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the World Food Programme (WFP) are looking for five students from all over the world aged 10 to 17 that are enthusiastic about nutritious school food and everything related.

School food advocates will help FAO and WFP better understand what schoolchildren expect and think about their school meals, meal time experiences and foods available in schools. We will share this knowledge with our partners to make sure we can build school food programmes that respond to your needs. This will also support the important work of the School Meals Coalition.

The advocates will call, in their own words, for children’s rights to nutritious and more sustainable school meals, have their voice be heard during global events, record videos to share their experiences, and more. Your voices and efforts will help echo the importance of school meals to young people and governments around the world.
