School Nutrition Programs in Canada and Asia-Pacific

July 25, 2012 by SNO-Kellie

The Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) and the Social and Industrial Food Service Institute held a conference in Moscow in June 2012 to review school nutrition programs in APEC member economies, including Canada. APEC members agreed that in the context of today’s realities, which include increased food insecurity, a rise in biofuel production, and climate change challenges proper attention should be paid to school feeding.

Breakfast Programs Urged For Every School

Toronto Public Health has issued the Nourishing Young Minds report calling for Student Nutrition Programs (SNPs) in all schools across Canada’s largest city. While funding for SNPs in Toronto has grown by 52% since 2005, the number of participants has grown by 86%. The city’s medical officer of health, Dr. David McKeown, is urging a pragmatic, planned, staged and managed approach to rolling out SNPs across the city over a five year period, starting with the neediest schools.
