Provide Emergency Food and Nutrition for Children Under Two

The first two years are a critical time for childhood development, with long-term consequences for health and wellbeing.

The Archdiocese of Ouagadougou is expanding its crucial project to Linonghin Parish, focusing on food distribution and nutritional support for children under 23 months. This initiative will provide essential items such as rice, beans, and cooking oil to families with babies, as well as educational sessions on proper child feeding practices and screenings for malnutrition.

Food distribution is carefully coordinated to assist both internally displaced families and host families, alleviating immediate hunger and ensuring access to essential nutrition. This initiative also focuses on promoting sustainable dietary practices that are critical to the long-term health and well-being of the children, providing a vital lifeline in the face of ongoing adversity.
