Dhaka Tribune (English)-এর প্রতিবেদন থেকে হুবহু উদ্ধৃত
- Addressing primary education through the twin lenses of nutritional security and classroom retention is a progressive, essential strategy, and we can only hope for more decisions such as this.
- In a country where child stunting, poverty, and post-primary dropouts remain severe challenges and have compromised our future, providing age-appropriate, quality meals in partnership with global experts like the World Food Program can transform the educational trajectory of millions of young citizens.
- Providing 11 million children with daily nourishment could be transformational for our country, but we must move swiftly from promises to implementation, ensuring that no child in Bangladesh is forced to choose between an empty stomach and an education.
