Rethinking School Feeding Social Safety Nets, Child Development, and the Education Sector

REA Auditado

This review highlights three main
findings. First, school feeding programs in low-income
countries exhibit large variation in cost, with concomitant
opportunities for cost containment. Second, as countries get
richer, school feeding costs become a much smaller
proportion of the investment in education. For example, in
Zambia the cost of school feeding is about 50 percent of
annual per capita costs for primary education; in Ireland it
is only 10 percent.

Databases

REA Auditado

Les bases de dades són el mètode preferit per a l'emmagatzemament estructurat de dades. Les grans aplicacions multiusuari, els telèfons mòbils o les agendes electròniques utilitzen tecnologia de bases de dades per a assegurar la integritat de les dades i facilitar la tasca tant dels usuaris com dels programadors que les van desenvolupar.
Des de la realització del primer model de dades, passant per l'administració del sistema gestor, fins a arribar al desenvolupament de l'aplicació, la tecnologia i els conceptes associats són molts i molt heterogenis.
