Acting on the Call: Preventing Child and Maternal Deaths
A community health worker, who has received USAID training, carries out a weekly nutritional cooking class at a community member's house in Nampula, Mozambique. Women with newborn babies are encouraged to attend so they learn about nutrition and the types of food their babies need to be weaned onto.
