Uganda programme teaches youth financial literacy and affordable nutrition
Original: Equipping youth with practical financial literacy "Breakfast and lunch on our menu provided affordable good food for us.
A youth-focused initiative in Uganda is combining practical financial literacy training with affordable, balanced meals. Organisers report that breakfast and lunch provided during the programme cost no more than Shs 4,000 (about USD 1.02) per meal, while remaining nutritious and well balanced. The approach pairs money-management lessons with low-cost healthy eating, a model being highlighted as a practical way to support young people's development.
Why now: The combination of financial literacy training with cheap, nutritious meals offers a practical model for youth empowerment amid rising living costs.
