Improved Nutritional Security and household Resilience

This Project, implemented by IDEAS Ghana under the Feed the Future Resilience in Northern Ghana Systems Strengthening Activity, supports women of reproductive age and children under five in 20 communities across the Sissala East Municipality of the Upper West Region. The project focuses on improving nutrition, food security, and intensification of climate-smart agriculture practices, dry season gardening and poultry production and consumption. The initiative in partnership with the Department of Agriculture, Ghana Health Service, and local stakeholders supported small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to supply nutritious food to local markets and promotes the consumption of animal-source foods to combat malnutrition. IDEAS Ghana built stronger, self-reliant communities that better withstand the challenges of food insecurity and climate shocks.
