Liberia Agricultural Upgrading, Nutrition and Child Health Project (LAUNCH)
Liberia Agricultural Upgrading, Nutrition and Child Health Project (LAUNCH) is working to reduce chronic malnutrition levels in food insecure, vulnerable populations in Bong and Nimba Counties. They are working with smallholders to sustainably improve production practices, increase farm management skills, build resilience, improve infrastructure and expand economic opportunities through a value chain approach. The health and nutrition strategy focuses on the prevention of malnutrition, the early identification and treatment of acute malnutrition to prevent further deterioration of health/nutritional status, and the promotion of high-impact health and nutrition interventions at household, community and facility levels. Households receiving supplementary food rations are targeted for inclusion in the agricultural and livelihoods activities. The ration has been carefully designed to reduce malnutrition without craeting beneficiary dependencies and undermining a market approach. Education activities develop community capacities to support education and increase access by youth to livelihoods education that increases their employability.
