School meals are an essential tool to ensure food and nutritional security for children and adolescents, in addition to contributing to local agriculture and promoting healthy eating habits from an early age. The Comida do Amanhã Institute is engaged in strengthening public policies that ensure the provision of balanced, sustainable and culturally appropriate meals, with a focus on the National School Meals Program (PNAE). We work in the production and dissemination of knowledge, in research and case studies, in the articulation of networks and in the encouragement of initiatives that expand social participation and transparency in the management of school meals.

The relation between food systems, climate change, and biodiversity is central to ensuring environmental resilience and future food security. Comida do Amanhã works to highlight the impacts of the agri-food model on climate and ecological crises, promoting regenerative practices, valuing socio-biodiversity and building policies that integrate food, climate justice and the environment. We believe that a sustainable food system must be aligned with the preservation of ecosystems and adaptation to climate change.

Comida do Amanhã works to promote the human right to adequate food, to advocate for inclusive public policies and to strengthen social participation in decision-making processes on food and nutrition. We work to broaden the discussion on food justice and to ensure that voices from different societal sectors are heard in the development of solutions for a more equitable food system.
