Today at Rugar Jatau Community, we carried out the implementation of the in collaboration with and , focusing on improving nutrition among vulnerable groups.

As part of the intervention, we distributed the 6–3–1 nutrition formula, which consists of

6 tins of guinea corn

3 tins of soybeans

1 tin of groundnut

This nutrient-rich blend is designed to be processed and prepared as a complementary meal for children aged 6 months to 5 years, as well as for pregnant women, supporting healthy growth and development.

We also emphasized the importance of other home/local made balanced diets, encouraging families to utilize locally available foods to improve nutrition.

In addition, this activity contributes to our digital advocacy efforts, where we document and share evidence from the field to amplify community voices, promote accountability, and support improved primary healthcare services.

The outreach created an opportunity to engage directly with mothers, demonstrate preparation methods, and raise awareness on preventing malnutrition within the community.

Together, we are building healthier communities 💚
