Liberia-5 Year Program

Malnutrition Matters is one of several NGOs working with US-based prime contractor OIC International on the 5-year Health, Agriculture and Nutrition Development for Sustainability (HANDS) project funded by USAID. The objectives of the HANDS program are to eliminate the current food gap and nutritional deficit and to provide nutrition-related business training in two of the most food insecure counties of Liberia: Grand Geddeh and River Ghee. The HANDS program strives to help Liberians help themselves. Through technical training, and entrepreneurship and business development, OICI's HANDS project aims to develop Liberia's workforce. The incorporation of soy flour into the local food staple 'gari' and the village processing of soybeans into soymilk, will benefit over one hundred thousand Liberians over the next 5 years.

Malnutrition Matters' role will be to provide installation and training with 8 VitaGoats and 20 Small Farm SolarFlex food dryers and to provide business training to the operators to enable them to operate the equipment as micro-enterprises.
