Fighting malnutrition using community-based, accessible, and sustainable solutions.

Nutrition is at the heart of AfriCHAN’s mission. Our nutrition programs focus on early detection, prevention, and management of malnutrition among children and mothers.
We promote behaviour change, improve dietary practices, and strengthen household food resilience.
