From March 2-13, MSC will host a World Food Programme (WFP) photo exhibit highlighting WFP's role as "the United Nations' frontline agency addressing hunger and nutrition," as well as Canada's role in supporting the Programme.

Students are invited to talk about nutrition and food security by engaging with the photos via QR codes the social media hashtag #WFPSavingLives.

The photo exhibit aims to generate discussion among viewers around questions such as:

How has food assistance changed over the last 50 years?
Why is nutrition so important?
How important is Canada's leadership role in investing in nutrition to improve maternal, newborn, and child health?
Do you see a connection between food security and peace and security?
What can you and your school do to make a difference?

The photo exhibit is located on MSC's second floor.
