NAMATALA SLUM, UGANDA: Following discovery of poor nutrition in some pupils, the school's health department invited a nutritionist to talk with parents of those most affected.
A nutritionist from the Joint Clinical Research Centre in Mbale taught the parents about alternative health foods that would help build their children’s bodies. She encouraged them to feed the children earlier so they would not miss vital meals. The health team assisted the nutritionist by preparing sample foods.
