2.3 Student Hunger


2.3.1 Student food insecurity and hunger

The Asian Institute of Technology (AIT) has implemented a comprehensive program to address food insecurity among its community members, including students, staff, and on-campus service providers. Central to this initiative is the “35 Baht Meal Program,” which requires every food vendor on campus to offer at least one complete and nutritious meal priced at 35 Thai Baht. In addition, three (3) types of one full dish with rice or plate of food should not cost more than 35 Baht. Menu dish prices should not exceed 60 Baht per dish, and any item priced higher than 60 Baht must receive prior approval from the AIT Cafeteria Management before being implemented. These measures ensure that all members of the AIT community have access to affordable, balanced meals while promoting equity, inclusivity, and well-being across campus.

2.5.4 Sustainable food purchases

The Asian Institute of Technology cares about purchasing and sourcing things in a way that’s good for the environment and people. The Institute follows ten important rules when purchasing items. These policies make sure vendors respect human rights, treat workers well, protect the environment, and guard against corruption. AIT believes in supporting local and sustainable products to make our campus greener and better for everyone.

Refer to page 11, VII on “Green Purchasing”



AIT maintains a meticulous record-keeping system for all invoices related to sustainable food purchases, ensuring transparency and accountability in its procurement processes. By systematically tracking these invoices, the university can monitor its sustainable food initiatives and assess their impact on its environmental goals. This diligent record-keeping also allows AIT to maintain a clear financial record of its sustainable food expenditures for reporting and auditing purposes.
