“Where Newcastle Disease is not controlled, there are limited eggs available for household food. They must either be used to hatch chickens or are exclusively eaten by men. This means that the disease is robbing communities of a nutritionally dense, balanced food in the midst of unacceptably high rates of childhood stunting.”

OUR IMPACT
“My chickens are my banking system – they enable me to get immediate cash when I need it. It is improving my children’s health because they are eating more chickens and also because my money is like a medical guarantee of medical assistance. Having chickens around really helps me and my family.”
