Who We Are

Learn and Lunch is a student led organisation working to address campus hunger in Uganda. We treat hunger not as a personal failure, but as a structural challenge within higher education that requires evidence, coordination, and institutional response.

THE CHALLENGE

Food insecurity among university students in Uganda is rarely discussed or documented. Many students rely on inconsistent meals, informal coping strategies, or complete meal skipping to survive academic life. Because hunger is normalized and stigmatized, it remains largely invisible to institutions and policymakers. Learn and Lunch exists to challenge this silence by documenting realities, amplifying student voices responsibly, and pushing for systemic solutions.
