Growing More Than Food: A mother’s nutrition journey
Meet Mutuyimana Jacqueline from the rolling hills of Gicumbi district’s Mutete sector. As a young mother with a one-year-old child, she once struggled with the seemingly insurmountable challenge of providing proper nutrition. Like many rural mothers, Jacqueline’s understanding of nutrition was limited. Meals were simple and repetitive, typically consisting of sweet potatoes, manioc and whatever local crops were available. The Kungahara project was launched in 2024 to help adress the knowledge gap.
Kungahara Project
The Kungahara project, is a project financially supported by the European Union and the Austrian Development Agency, implemented by CARE (CARE Austria and CARE Rwanda), in partnership with DUHARANIRA AMAJYAMBERE Y’ICYARO (DUHAMIC-ADRI). This project aims to significantly contribute to resilient food systems and improved food and nutrition security in Rwanda.
