Nutrition Program
Adequate nutrition is the basis for comprehensive growth and development. Good nutrition can help reduce poverty, with proper nutrition children have more opportunities to learn, because their brains develop properly, and this allows them to have better job opportunities in adulthood.
In the nutrition program, we seek to bring communities closer to a service that helps improve family eating habits, achieving optimal nutrition and thereby improving their life chances. In the nutrition program we carry out the following activities:
- Nutritional evaluation and monitoring of children under 5 years of age.
- Supplementation for children and women of childbearing age.
- Practical nutritional workshops.
