Positive Deviant/Hearth programme - A proven way out of malnutrition
Emebet Yirse, 22, is one of the mothers whose child was identified as moderately malnourished during a child health assessment survey coordinated by World Vision and local health officials. She and her son were soon invited to participate in sessions on PD/Hearth – an integrated, community-based nutrition programme that leverages existing expertise and local foods and agriculture to support caregivers of undernourished children to ensure sustainable recovery. Today, her son is healthy.
