It not only has powerful implications for the creation of human capacity, but also helps people realize their full potential and expand their connections with the world. Economic analyses repeatedly demonstrate that education gives a high economic return within the life - span of an individual and is a key factor underlying the economic growth of nations. Viewed from these perspectives, the decision at the turn of the millennium of governments and development partners to pursue the goal of Education for All (EFA) was not only an important contribution to one sector, but the launch of an endeavor with major implications for the future of humanity. The early perception of the goal of EFA was that all children should have access to education-every child should be able to exercise the right to go to school. This limited goal soon broadened to address the quality of the education that a child received at school and the factors that ensured the child was able to stay in school long enough to learn enough. These additional objectives have expanded the goal of EFA, so that it now aims to ensure that every child has the opportunity to complete an education of good quality, although definitions of quality and completeness remain under discussion. The question now is not whether school health and school feeding programs are necessary to EFA, but how they can be implemented at meaningful scale in the poorest countries, which need them the most.CC BY 3.0 IGOACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENTACCESS TO EDUCATIONADEQUATE CLASSROOMSADOLESCENTSADULTSAGE GROUPSAIDS EPIDEMICANEMIAARIBARRIERS TO EDUCATIONBASIC LEARNINGBASIC LEARNING NEEDSCHEMOTHERAPYCHILD DEVELOPMENTCHILD DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMSCHILD NUTRITIONCHILDREN WITH DISABILITIESCLASSROOMCLASSROOMSCLINICSCOGNITIVE DEVELOPMENTCOGNITIVE FUNCTIONCOMPARATIVE EDUCATIONCOMPREHENSIVE SCHOOL HEALTHCONDITIONAL CASH TRANSFERSCRIMEDEMAND FOR EDUCATIONDENTISTRYDIABETESDIARRHEADIETDISABILITIESDROPOUT RATESEARLY CHILD DEVELOPMENTEARLY CHILDHOODEARLY CHILDHOOD INTERVENTIONSEATING HABITSEDUCATION DEVELOPMENTEDUCATION FOR ALLEDUCATION FOR CHILDRENEDUCATION GOALSEDUCATION MANAGEMENTEDUCATION OUTCOMESEDUCATION POLICIESEDUCATION PROGRAMSEDUCATION SECTOREDUCATION STRATEGYEDUCATION SYSTEMEDUCATION SYSTEMSEDUCATIONAL ACCESSEDUCATIONAL ACHIEVEMENTEDUCATIONAL ATTAINMENTEDUCATIONAL BENEFITSEDUCATIONAL OUTCOMESEDUCATIONAL PLANNINGEDUCATIONAL QUALITYEFFECTIVE EDUCATIONEFFECTIVENESS OF EDUCATIONELEMENTARY SCHOOLENROLLMENTEPIDEMICSEQUAL OPPORTUNITIESFAMILY HEALTHFAMILY LIFEFAMILY LIFE EDUCATIONFEE ABOLITIONFOLIC ACIDFRIENDLY SCHOOLFRIENDLY SCHOOLSGENDER EQUALITYGENDER EQUITYGENDER IMBALANCESGENDER ISSUESGENDER SENSITIVEGIRLSGIRLS IN EDUCATIONGLOBAL EDUCATIONGLOBAL INITIATIVE ON EDUCATIONHEALTH EDUCATIONHEALTH INTERVENTIONSHEALTH MESSAGESHEALTH POLICYHEALTH PROVIDERSHEALTH SERVICESHEALTH-PROMOTING SCHOOLSHIV/AIDSHUMAN DEVELOPMENTHYGIENEIMBALANCES IN EDUCATIONIMMUNODEFICIENCYINFECTIONINFECTIOUS DISEASESINTERVENTIONIRONIRON SUPPLEMENTSKNOWLEDGE SHARINGLEARNINGLEARNING ACHIEVEMENTLEARNING INSTITUTIONLEARNING MATERIALSLEARNING OUTCOMESLIFE SKILLSLIFE SKILLS EDUCATIONLIFE-SKILLSMALARIAMALNUTRITIONMATERNAL AND CHILD HEALTHMCHMEDICAL RESEARCHMENTAL HEALTHMENTAL HEALTH PROMOTIONMORBIDITYMORTALITYNATIONAL EDUCATIONNATIONAL SCHOOLNONGOVERNMENTAL ORGANIZATIONSNUMBER OF STUDENTSNURSESNUTRITIONNUTRITION INTERVENTIONSNUTRITION OUTCOMESNUTRITION PROGRAMNUTRITION PROGRAMSOBESITYORAL HEALTHORPHANSOUT-OF-SCHOOL CHILDRENPARENT-TEACHER ASSOCIATIONPARITYPARTICIPATION IN EDUCATIONPARTICIPATION OF PARENTSPEDIATRICSPERFORMANCE AT SCHOOLPHYSICAL ACTIVITYPHYSICAL EDUCATIONPOOR CHILDRENPRIMARY COMPLETIONPRIMARY COMPLETION RATEPRIMARY SCHOOLPRIMARY SCHOOL COMPLETIONPRIMARY SCHOOL COMPLETION RATEPRIMARY SCHOOL-AGE CHILDRENPRIMARY SCHOOLSPRODUCTIVITYPUBLIC HEALTHPUPIL-TEACHER RATIOQUALITY EDUCATIONQUALITY LEARNINGQUALITY SCHOOLSREPEATERSREPRODUCTIVE HEALTHREPRODUCTIVE HEALTH EDUCATIONRETURNS TO EDUCATIONRISK FACTORSRISK GROUPSSAFE DRINKING WATERSANITATIONSCHOOL AGESCHOOL ATTENDANCESCHOOL CHILDRENSCHOOL CURRICULASCHOOL DROPOUTSCHOOL ENVIRONMENTSCHOOL FEESCHOOL FEEDINGSCHOOL FEEDING PROGRAMSSCHOOL FEESSCHOOL HEALTHSCHOOL HEALTH ACTIVITIESSCHOOL HEALTH EDUCATIONSCHOOL HEALTH INTERVENTIONSSCHOOL HEALTH PROGRAMSSCHOOL HEALTH PROMOTIONSCHOOL HEALTH SERVICESSCHOOL HYGIENESCHOOL MEALSCHOOL MEALSSCHOOL PARTICIPATIONSCHOOL PERFORMANCESCHOOL PROGRAMSCHOOL SYSTEMSCHOOL-AGESCHOOL-AGE CHILDSCHOOL-AGE CHILDRENSCHOOLCHILDRENSCHOOLINGSCREENINGSEXUAL ABUSESEXUAL HEALTHSEXUALITYSEXUALITY EDUCATIONSEXUALLY TRANSMITTED DISEASESSKILLS DEVELOPMENTSOCIAL SUPPORTSTATE SCHOOLSSTUDENT PERFORMANCESTUNTINGTEACHERTEACHERSTEACHINGTEXTBOOKSTOBACCOTOBACCO USEUNIVERSAL BASIC EDUCATIONUNIVERSAL EDUCATIONUNIVERSAL PRIMARY EDUCATIONUNWANTED PREGNANCYVIOLENCEVULNERABLE CHILDRENWORKERSYOUNG PEOPLEYOUTHWorld Bank10.1596/978-0-8213-7907-3
