Implementoring a Healthy Meal for all

Implementoring Healthy Meal for all (HealthyWave) aims to contribute to the implementation of the European Child Guarantee to ensure effective and free access to at least one healthy meal each school day for all children at risk of poverty and social exclusion in Europe. We need to implement school lunch concepts that have high nutritious quality, are safe, sustainable and low in waste, inclusive, satisfactory to children, parents and school staff, feasible and affordable.

The Healthy Wave toolkit: A City Guide to Better School Meals

The Healthy Wave Toolkit is a hands‑on resource designed to help cities and their partners create healthier, more sustainable school meal systems. It brings together evidence, tools, and real‑world lessons to support actors who want to shift from fragmented initiatives to a coordinated, system‑wide approach. At its core, the toolkit helps stakeholders understand how school food environments function, where leverage points for change exist, and which interventions can generate lasting impact.
