Nutrition

Every country in the world is affected by malnutrition.

According to the World Health Organization, every country in the world is affected by malnutrition as a result of the double disease burden, in which diseases related to undernutrition coexist with diseases related to overconsumption and poor diet.

We are partnering with local organizations to create solutions that address the unique nutritional needs of each community behind these threats which not only place an unacceptably high burden on the health of the population, but reinforce the cycle of poverty and disease. 

We are uniquely poised at the intersection between opportunity, resource, and capability to align our organization with the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals 2 and 3: zero hunger and healthy lives and wellbeing for all. We do this by working directly with our local partners to employ evidence-based, cost effective preventative practices that address undernutrition, anemia, micronutrient deficiencies, overnutrition and nutrition-related non-communicable disease. 

Through this work, we have seen measurably improved health outcomes in our partner communities.
