Summary

Description

Cassava (or manioc) is the vegetable that forms the staple food in the diet of most people in rural DRC. Although it is easy to grow, the problem is that it has little nutritional value.

Background

UK aid has supported the government of DRC and aid agencies including Action Against Hunger to provide emergency nutrition response programmes across DRC in 2010 and 2011. In some areas, the communities have taken some of the ideas that Action Against Hunger brought to them, and organised themselves to tackle malnutrition from the ground up - by forming their own co-operative farms and self-support groups.
