The economic crisis has a severe impact on children’s lives in Greece. Almost 50% of students, especially those residing in less-favored areas of the country are facing food insecurity. One out of six students is facing physical health problems and one out of four is facing emotional health problems. The prolonged socio-economic crisis is increasing the problem of food insecurity and enhances unhealthy eating habits. The Program “DIATROFI” supports families in need by providing free meals to students and educational activities on healthy nutrition.
