Food

In Angolamany 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, this project is for those marginalized group who lack access to safe and healthy food, health care, digital technologies and knowledge, skills and competencies required to navigate them. 

With regard to the availability of food to families; we promote the increase and diversification of family production, and the improvement of post-harvest conservation systems. We also will conduct community education on appropriate feeding practices, hygiene, and sanitation. During nutrition screening we will also conduct online-offline cooking demonstrations to show households how they can prepare a healthy meal with locally available ingredients.

Our dream is to build a big school-center in a rural area allowing the access to up-to-date curriculum education programmes and trusted e-learning resources, among many other benefits such as video and social media.

The center will be equipped with ICT tools and internet. In the near future a store with affordable prices containing ICT tools and 5G technology will be built, so that poor people can access and buy technology.
