<![CDATA[The Free Nutritious Meal Program (MBG) is a program introduced by the Indonesian government in 2025 to address nutrition issues in children, reduce stunting rates, and improve the quality of basic education. This study aims to evaluate how effective the implementation of the MBG program is at the elementary school level through a literature review approach. The findings of this study show that MBG has a good influence on children's nutritional status, including reducing stunting rates as well as increasing students' concentration and attendance at school.
