Summary

This study looks at whether giving schoolchildren in rural Ghana a daily peanut-based meal can improve school attendance and reduce dropouts. About 5,800 kids aged 5 to 17 will receive either the peanut meal or a local rice/millet flour meal. The goal is to see if the peanut option works better at keeping kids in school.
