STRATEGY: FOOD SECURITY AND NUTRITION<br />
Increased food security Improved nutrition education<br />
• Focus on increased food<br />
production<br />
• Three food types (legumes, root<br />
tubers, and meat/eggs)<br />
• Produce enough to stop buying,<br />
• Food storage practices (dry<br />
cereals)<br />
• Food ass<strong>is</strong>tance<br />
Nutrition assessment (weight,<br />
height & MUAC)<br />
Nutritional counseling (optimal<br />
diet)<br />
Infant food supplements from<br />
clinics or locally made<br />
Water, sanitation & hygiene
Outcomes: Caregiver practicing backyard<br />
vegetable gardening<br />
Volunteer trains caregivers sack<br />

Caregiver demonstrates &<br />
applies backyard gardening skills<br />

Challenges & suggestions
Programmatic Processes Challenges<br />
• Geographic coverage, terrain,<br />
weather<br />
• Staff turnover (<strong>Africare</strong> + subs) –<br />
sometimes we lose those that we<br />
need most<br />
• Delay in funds transfers (HQ-CO-<br />
FO/subs) lost time <strong>is</strong> too much!!<br />
• Inefficient Admin& Fin Support<br />
Systems<br />
28
Suggestions:<br />
• Program mgt – R/ship with HQ & CO and<br />
between (Tech & Non tech staff)<br />
• Finance dept - Funds request Vs d<strong>is</strong>bursements<br />
– refer to our approved budgets<br />
• Admin – procurement – value for money<br />
• HR –reward system, performance mgt, staff<br />
training & career path<br />
• Telling our story better – our website should<br />
speak to what we currently do in many of our<br />
project. – Update it regularly including field<br />
success stories<br />
