Indonesia’s Lifeline: School Meals Secure for Afghan Children
The World Food Programme (WFP) announced on Wednesday, August 6, 2025, that Indonesia has provided crucial funding for school feeding programs in Afghanistan. This generous contribution will ensure meals for primary school children, both boys and girls, for the next three months.
The initiative, reported by Khaama Press, is a significant boost to Afghanistan’s struggling education sector. It directly addresses food insecurity, a major obstacle to children’s access to and success in school.
This timely support underscores the growing international concern for Afghanistan’s humanitarian crisis. The Indonesian contribution highlights the importance of collaborative efforts in tackling widespread hunger and promoting education, particularly for vulnerable children. The impact on school attendance and overall well-being of these children will be closely monitored. The success of this program could pave the way for similar initiatives in the future, offering a beacon of hope in challenging times.
