HealthEnvironmentWaste reduction for improved food and nutrition security
Partner: Zambia Women and Girls Foundation
| Zambia
The project aims to address the critical issues of nutrition, education and food security, focusing on empowering women, children, households, and communities to preserve as much food as they can during times of plenty, and later make informed dietary choices ensuring that families have nutritious food throughout the year to improve overall health and well-being while reducing malnutrition, food wastage and food insecurity. Preservation of food, especially African indigenous vegetables, reduces waste from the harvest, makes food availabile throughout the dry season, and provides the family with a valuable income when they sell the preserved food during times of scarcity.
