Global Child Nutrition Foundation initiatives and private partners like Sodexo are scaling school meal programs to address the double burden of malnutrition affecting over 400 million children worldwide. These multi-sectoral efforts leverage technology and culinary innovation to boost enrollment, specifically benefiting girls, while reducing food waste and supporting local agricultural economies. Experts emphasize that standardized data and public-private collaboration remain essential to achieving Indonesia's 2045 stunting targets and securing broader national development goals.
