NUTRITION PROJECT

URGENCE CONTRE LA FAIM , Chad
Expiration: April 6, 2022

As a nutritionist I’ll do my best to overcome, different challenge of malnutrition in order to
rescue vulnerable people. The idea is to have a composition of meal from natural food in
order to struggle against malnutrition. We’ll try to innovate something special in nutrition
like creating an application. This application will guide us to compose different diet from local
food to different patients according to their nutrient density. In other case, we’ll organize
many trainings, concerning a caring program for children and pregnant women who
suffering from malnutrition. Inside the town we’ll have a program of competition named
“nutrition for all” with many schools. The idea is to have an approach to vulgarize nutrition
knowledge within the society via national TV. We have already our association named
“URGENCE CONTRE LA FAIM”, through it, I’ll handle the project and trying to work on it together.
