We are happy to launch our new campaign " Milk4Children" with Sofonie Dala

Free distribution of soybean milk for malnourished children

In Angola many children continue to suffer from problems associated with malnutrition, lack of water, health, or protection. Malnutrition, a direct consequence of poverty, is a serious and troubling problem in Angola. Families can’t give their body as much food as it needs.

Children, with weaker bodies and health, are more vulnerable and suffer seriously from hunger. Malnutrition is one of the main causes of child death in this country.

Therefore, the objective of this campaign is to distribute soybean flour and soybean milk as protein quality diet to improve nutritional status of malnourished children.

• RECOMMENDATIONS

To improve the nutritional status of malnourished under five children further intervention is needed in terms of education and training on soybean-based diet formulation.

• FUTURE RESEARCH

More research should be done to increase the data base on soybean research in Angola and contribute to further development of improved products to combat malnutrition.
