From the 133 children evaluated at the beginning of the project 59% of them were diagnosed with a form of malnutrition.This evaluation will be executed each quarter during the project.
Since March this year the mothers with children under 6 year participate in the workshops concerning two main components of the project: Health / Nutrition and Business management.
Health / Nutrition:

During the months of February and March families participated in implementing their vegetable garden. During the rainy season they planted their vegetable seeds for radishes, parsley, spinach, onions, broccoli, cabbage, carrots and lettuce.
