Snack time

Today I was in Chitipa in the far north of Malawi which borders Tanzania and Zambia. I was meeting some of my trainers from the district and we spent some time monitoring some Early Childhood Centres.

One of the reasons these centres were started was so that children would receive at least one nutritious meal a day. This child has just finished eating her porridge (called Likuni Phala) which is fortified maize porridge with soya, beans or groundnuts.
