Strategic Planning Advisors for Education and School health in Africa: Desk Review of School Health and Nutrition

The Strategic Planning Advisors for Education and School Health in Africa (SPAESHA) activity by MOMENTUM Country and Global Leadership was designed to explore the potential of multisector coordination within education systems to advance policies that promote healthy, safe, and resilient schools in an ever-evolving health landscape in Kenya, Malawi, Senegal, and Uganda. SPAESHA conducted national-level policy audits and a desk review of published and gray literature on school-age children (3-18 years) in each SPAESHA country. These reports detail findings, including an overview of the school health and education contexts and the known and emerging health needs affecting school-age children, including infectious diseases, nutrition, water, sanitation and hygiene, sexual and reproductive health, disabilities, oral health, injuries, mental health and wellbeing, and emergency, disaster, climate, or environment-related health issues.
