What This Grant Funds

The purpose of the five-year Feed the Future Senegal Cultivating Nutrition activity (“Cultivating Nutrition”) is to improve diets among the Senegalese population, particularly young children and women of reproductive age, in the Feed the Future Zone of Influence (ZOI). Increased access to diverse, nutritious, and safe foods along with increased adoption of nutrition and care practices will lead to increased consumption of a healthy diet. Ultimately, improved diets will reduce risks of undernutrition and overnutrition, both of which hamper human health, productivity, and economic growth.
