on Monday underscored the importance of guaranteeing a healthy diet for girls and boys at school so as to ensure their learning and future development.
Within this framework, Mrs. Boluarte mentioned that the
Qali Warma school food program seeks to guarantee students' concentration at classrooms.
Likewise, she congratulated more than 60 schools that had opted to go hand-in-hand with Peruvian farmers, who organized themselves into cooperatives to become suppliers for the State-run social program and bring safe food to school students.
The Head of State called for continuing to make progress thanks to the joint effort undertaken by the three levels of government, agricultural producers, micro and small enterprises.
"The economy of a country is made up of you (MSEs); and if you do not embrace one another and the Government, we will not move forward," she expressed.
The top official insisted on a commitment to a nutritious diet cooked with healthy products such as ollucos, beetroots, potatoes, spinach, quinoa or tarwi, better known as chocho in some Peruvian regions.
