Abstract
100 words
Short-term hunger caused by inability of parents to pay for or
pack lunch for their children threatens success of Universal
Primary Education in Uganda. School gardening if properly
introduced offers a sustainable solution that empowers the pupils
to gain life skills in agriculture and to produce food for school
feeding programme. Agricultural clubs inspire and motivate pupils
to practice agriculture when they own the enterprises. The clubs
also enable pupils to learn other skills associated with selforganisation,
leadership and teamwork. Sustainability of school
gardening, however, requires commitment and joint engagement
of researchers, extension workers, school administration, parents
and local leadership.
