Next week, schools start opening for the 2022 academic session. Over 100,000 children will be going back to school meals, which the Royal Government of Bhutan 🇧🇹strives to make more nutritious and locally sourced. Accounting for about one-seventh of the food market, the Sherig Bhutan National School Feeding and Nutrition Programme can, in partnership with Ministry of Agriculture and Forests, Royal Government of Bhutan , help transform 🇧🇹food systems from a supply to a demand (for nutritious food) driven system.
