For a Peru free of anemia! We significantly reduced the percentage of anemia in children from the rural Sierra de Áncash.

In March 2021 we did a first screening of the year to the 330 children of the Nutrition Program. This evaluation showed a prevalence of anemia in 21% of the children, at that time the health conditions of the children were quite precarious, which was reflected not only in health, but also in the difficulty in learning and learning. carry out their daily activities.
After 9 months of hard work by the entire team of our Nutrition Program and our allies, in the last evaluation carried out in December 2021, the results were incredibly encouraging: only 9% of the children in the program presented some degree of anemia.
This result is the result of the strategy proposed by our specialists and the hard work and commitment of all those involved. Thanks to the constant follow-up and monitoring of our professionals in nutrition, food supplementation, deworming campaign, timely pharmacological treatment and workshops and training for families on proper nutrition, we are on the right track so that this serious condition that affects children disappear permanently.
