| 説明 | Even nurse Tecle couldn't prevent her son from becoming malnourished. But she explains how he was saved by Action Against Hunger after he became very ill in 2010."My child was in pain, he had a high fever and was sick with typhoid. He couldn't eat, he didn't have any appetite. I was desperate, it consumed all of our energy."When Action Against Hunger came here though, they quickly took care of him and gave him PlumpyNut - and from that moment he recovered. I'm very grateful to Action Against Hunger because I think my child would have died otherwise. They did a great job - now he wants to be a doctor when he grows up!"BackgroundAcute malnutrition is a major public health problem across the Democratic Republic of Congo. UK aid has supported the government of DRC and aid agencies including Action Against Hunger to provide emergency nutrition response programmes across DRC in 2010 and 2011. In some areas, the communities have taken the ideas that Action Against Hunger brought to them, and organised themselves to tackle malnutrition from the ground up - by forming their own co-operative farms and self-support groups.Read the full story at www.dfid.gov.uk/Stories/Case-Studies/2012/Sowing-the-seed...Picture: Russell Watkins/Department for International DevelopmentTerms of useThis image is posted under a Creative Commons - Attribution Licence, in accordance with the Open Government Licence.
