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.

Provide goods, food, personnel, services, cash, vouchers, family tracing and other assistance to meet basic human needs in order to foster transition from relief according to principles of universality, impartiality and human dignity, as well as implement risk reduction and resilience activities within a disaster response context. This element should be selected when possible as part of an integrated, coordinated and/or multi-sectoral approach. Increase availability and use of proven nutrition interventions to reduce mortality, morbidity, and food insecurity, including nutrition education to improve maternal diets, nutrition during pregnancy, exclusive breastfeeding, and infant and young child feeding practices; fortified or biofortified staple foods, and specialized food products to improve consumption of quality food; and delivery of nutrition services including micronutrient supplementation and community management of acute malnutrition. Strengthen host country capacity by advancing supportive nutrition and food security policies and improving nutrition information systems.
