The future of food can start in the places where children spend much of their day: schools.

Imagine a school environment where water is readily available, healthy meals are encouraged, gardens help children connect with food and nutrition education is part of everyday learning.

Creating healthier food environments takes more than individual choices. It requires policies, partnerships and action. This World Food Day, let’s look at how we can build healthier food environments for the next generation.

Food packaging can communicate a message in seconds. Shouldn’t important nutrition information be able to do the same?

Clear front-of-package warning labels can help consumers quickly identify products high in nutrients of concern and make more informed choices for themselves and their families.

This World Standards Day, let’s put health information front and centre and support food labelling standards that empower Jamaican consumers.

When choosing food, what do you notice first? Bright colours, cartoon characters, health claims or promotional offers can all influence what catches our attention, but where is the information that matters most for our health?

Front-of-package warning labels can make important nutrition information easier to see and understand, helping families make more informed choices.
