Good nutrition is essential for healthy growth, development and wellbeing, especially for children. Yet, eating well is not only about having enough food. It is also about having access to a variety of nutritious foods.
In T/A Kalolo, GVH Chinyerere, Lilongwe District, women are preparing soya milk from locally available soya beans, a source of plant-based protein that supports growth and development.
Affordbable food processing methods can help families make better use of locally available resources. Combined with a diverse diet that includes foods from all six food groups, these choices can contribute to healthier diets for women and children.
This World Food Day, CARE Malawi recognises the importance of local knowledge and practical solutions in making nutritious food more accessible to families.
