In order to form agents of change, it is important that our students at Niños del Arco Iris know which and how to cure the most common diseases in their locality.
Therefore, children from 3rd to 6th grade participated in informative talks about the "Nutritional Traffic Light", a strategy that allows the health team, kitchen staff, teachers and students to know about the diagnoses and work together to ensure that all children have a healthy nutritional status. They were also taught about anemia, malnutrition, obesity and the nutritional pyramid. Finally, they were shown a video of the "Good meal" plate and identified the components of a healthy lunch.
All our actions seek to make children agents of change, from themselves and with their community. In this way, we strengthen their capacities to solve local problems.
