Nidan works to create awareness against malnutrition and also demonstrate through the Nutrition Rehabilitation Centre(NRC) that fighting against malnutrition is not so much a matter of cost but also of mindset. The NRC was able to help 20 children in November, another 20 in December and 17 children in January. These were the children whose condition had deteriorated very badly and the mothers went back happy. Being winter it was not easy for the mothers to come to the centre and be there but our volunteers motivated them saying that they were putting the life of their child in danger as the child is severely malnourished.Nidan is now planning to launch a campaign against malnutrition in other districts of Bihar.It plans to train volunteers in ever village who can measure the condition of the child and if the child is severely malnourished then provide training to the mothers to help child in overcoming the situation.
