Article Synopsis
- The analysis covers the development, updates, and execution of Brazil's National Food and Nutrition Policy (PNAN) from its inception in 1999 to April 2020, using various research methods including document analysis and bibliographic reviews.
- The policy underwent a significant update in 2009 using a participatory approach that emphasizes healthy eating, the right to food, and nutritional security, aligning with the Brazilian Unified National Health System.
- Despite some progress in implementation, such as the publication of national Food Guides and funds allocation, there are lingering issues with monitoring and feedback mechanisms, making it challenging to fully realize the commitment to providing adequate and healthy food for all.
Food and nutrition education is viewed as a key strategy for promoting healthy eating habits, and the school is an appropriate space for developing these activities. The objective of this study was to describe and analyze the scientific literature on intervention studies on food and nutrition education in Brazilian schools. A literature review was conducted, selecting articles published from 2000 to 2011.
