| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study was centered on the northern part of Laos, and investigated the possibility of sharing skills and knowledge related to nutrition education with educators in the region, the creation of teaching materials, and related collaborations. As a trial phase in one region (La District, Oudomxay Province), we conducted a school meal program that focused on rice. In this program, we made use of rice grown in Laos, which is a dietary staple, and demonstrated that the school meal increased the school attendance rates among female students and decreased the rate of elementary school students who had to repeat a year and dropped out. At present, our school meal program is planned on a priority basis in 39 provinces of Laos that face poverty.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究は，発展途上国における持続可能な生活支援として，日本における家庭科教育の手法を生かし，教育に主眼を置きつつ，衣食住，家族，経済，女性支援を専門とする家政学の見地から，研究を進めていった。
本研究は，家政学の縦断的研究的意義もあり，この研究で得られた成果は，今後の家庭科教育に生かせるものと考える。また，発展途上国の貧困に陥りやすい子どもや女性を対象とした本研究は，ジェンダー視角からアプローチすることができる家庭科教育の視点で，生活のボトムアップを図ることに社会的意義があると考える。
