In Tripoli, Lebanon, young student researchers raise their voices to share what it means to learn on an empty stomach. Without a national school feeding programme, many children go through long school days hungry, struggling to focus and risking dropout. Through their research and lived experiences, these children call for nutritious school meals that uphold their right to education, health, and dignity. Their message is simple but urgent: feed our right to learn, feed our right to thrive.
