Nutritional Training

Good nutrition is vital in maintaining health particularly for PLWA. ACE project areas have good agricultural potential but there is little knowledge about the benefits of nutrition in the management of HIV/AIDS-related illness or in conjunction with ART and much of the land has been converted to cash crops such as sugar cane and maize.

ACE advocates for community members to convert part of their land to food crops and in partnership with the Ministry of Agriculture, trains them in the establishment of nutritious kitchen gardens.

ACE advocates for community groups to establish income generating activities which have a specific focus on nutrition.
