The situation in India, and therefore our children’s project, has changed dramatically since coronavirus.
Nutrition in times of corona: In India, the lockdown paralysed agriculture from one day to the next – and not only cultivation, but also supply chains were interrupted. Since then, prices have risen and food in particular has become scarce and very expensive. Food prices in the area surrounding our village are now 10 times higher than they used to be.
To prevent malnutrition, we provide our project children in the village with regular meals.
Nutrition, cultivation, production and cooking have become a major pillar of our project. We obtain most of our milk, fruit and vegetables from our own farm (organic). We consider this area to be essential in order to support the children’s health and concentration.
