The executive director of the Program, Mónica Moreno, highlighted the importance of this meeting in the joint commitment to guarantee nutritious and quality food for children.
The Qali Warma National School Feeding Program, of the Ministry of Development and Social Inclusion (Midis), held a technical working group with representatives of the College of Nutritionists of Peru and the Peruvian Association of Consumers and Users (ASPEC) as part of its commitment to continuous improvement.
The meeting’s objectives were to agree on strategies to address everyday situations and guarantee an adequate nutritional contribution in school breakfasts, which will include proteins of high biological value such as eggs, cheese and whole milk powder. In addition, it was agreed to promote an intense nutritional education campaign and good practices in food handling.
Qali Warma breakfasts provide between 20% and 25% of the daily energy requirement of schoolchildren, in line with the recommendations of the National Center for Food, Nutrition and Healthy Living (CENAN) of the Ministry of Health.
