Children in Sweden are benefiting from a powerful idea that should be the global baseline: free school meals that are nutritious, sustainable, and designed for growing minds. Thanks to long standing policy and a new pilot program, Swedish schools are serving food that supports health while cutting waste and emissions. Other countries are falling behind, and children are paying the price.

Sweden has provided free school meals since 1997, required them to be nutritious since 2011, and now links schools with local grocery stores to rescue surplus fruits and vegetables. Instead of waste, students enjoy meals like overnight oats and fresh juice blends. This reduces food waste, lowers environmental impact, and supports plant forward eating. Compare that with ultra processed lunches common in the US and UK.

Decades of research link good nutrition to better learning, focus, and wellbeing. Sign the petition now to demand change. Sign the petition now to protect children and the planet. Sign the petition now to expand sustainable school meals worldwide.
