As the saying goes, it takes a village. And in Rwanda, a group of farmers is harnessing the power of community by inviting local mothers to bring their young kids once a month for a hearty, nutritious meal.
The community kitchen provides plates stocked with all the major food groups, and mothers are able to unite to share ideas and resources, while learning about a balanced diet, child development, hygiene and more.
“I provide milk to the community kitchen and this boosts my relationship with the children and their families,” said Pascaline Uwera, a banana and dairy farmer. “It is something I am very proud of.”
Not only have mothers noticed a change in their own children, but they see it too in the other children as the months tick by. Having a space to build solidarity, to learn about the necessary food groups, and to see, firsthand, the change in their children’s well-being has had a ripple effect in the surrounding community.
