Child Nutrition Workshops
Child Nutrition Workshops
El Salvador  Children
In rural central El Salvador, mothers are the main caretakers for their children, and they often do not know the best diet to support healthy growth and illness prevention, nor how to buy the best foods because they are often expensive. Poor diet leads to growth problems and susceptibility to potentially fatal diseases such as dengue fever. These workshops will outline both the best diets to promote maximum growth and illness prevention in children, and help mothers find nutrient-rich foods. project reportread updates from the field
