Book: Shopping of the Scientist
Limited physical activity, increased stress, and poor diets have been major contributors to the increase of Communicable Diseases among residents of Kisumu, with the young population being the largest affected population. Moreover, Kisumu experiences Global Acute Malnutrition of 5.9%, which is poor according to the Kenya Nutrition Bulletin. Consequently, this has a negative impact on youth development and youth engagement, therefore calling for our intervention, to create an enabling environment for young people to thrive. JAY4T is working to promote youth involvement in sustainable agriculture to prevent NCDs caused poor diet, to increase food production, and to make different varieties available to boost nutrition with an overall aim of contributing to food security that is: availability (having sufficient quantities of appropriate food available), access (having adequate income or other resources to access food), and utilization/consumption (having adequate dietary intake and the ability to absorb and use nutrients in the body). This book by Sarah, our Associate from Italy is a resource to help young people learn and engage better with food in a fun way.
