Wawira Njiru was studying nutrition at university in Australia when she read about shocking levels of stunting and malnutrition among children in sub-Saharan Africa. So when she returned home to Kenya she set up a small-scale project providing subsidised meals for a handful of students at a school in Nairobi. Seven years later Food4Education serves more than 10,000 meals each day, and Wawira's goal is to ensure that in the future no Kenyan child has to choose between going to school and finding food. Mercy Juma went to see the project in action.

Food4Education is one of the finalists in The Food Chain鈥檚 Global Champion Award 2019.
