The Council of Governors (CoG), in partnership with Food for Education, is developing a model school feeding policy aimed at helping counties implement sustainable and locally appropriate nutrition programmes for Early Childhood Development (ECD) centres.

CoG Education Committee Chairperson Erick Mutai told County Education Executive Committee Members (CECMs) that the 47 devolved units continue to face major challenges in addressing malnutrition among pre-primary learners.
