UN WPF INITIATIVE

Improving the Nutritional Effectiveness of the Pradhan Mantri Poshan Shakti Nirman (PM Poshan) in Haryana:

With the support of the United Nations World Food Program (UN WFP) initiative, the project focuses on improving the nutritional impact of the Pradhan Mantri Poshan Shakti Nirman (PM Poshan) scheme in Haryana. Key strategies include establishing school kitchen gardens to supply fresh produce and implementing Social and Behavior Change Communication (SBCC) to promote better nutritional habits. The project aims to address nutritional issues like stunting and anemia by providing diverse diets and encouraging active engagement in gardening activities. The approach combines technical training, community involvement, and continuous monitoring to ensure long-term sustainability and positive health outcomes for students in targeted districts.

Our goal:

  • Establishing kitchen gardens in 1522 schools across 4 districts.
  • Social Behavioural Change Communication
  • Capacity building of Cooks and helpers to adopt healthy and hygienic practices
  • Trained teachers, students, and parents for long-term sustainability.
