Introduction:
Food and nutrition security remain Africa’s most fundamental challenges for human<br /> welfare and economic growth. Far too many people on the continent are unable to<br /> acquire and effectively utilize at all times the food they need for a healthy life.<br /> <br /> Because of low food availability and profound poverty, an estimated 200 million<br /> people on the continent are undernourished, and their numbers have increased by<br /> almost 20 percent since the early 1990s. The result is that more than a third of<br /> African children are stunted in their growth and must face a range of physical and<br /> cognitive challenges not faced by their better-fed peers. Under-nutrition is the major<br /> risk factor underlying over 28 percent of all deaths in Africa (some 2.9 million<br /> deaths annually). The continuing human costs of inadequate food and nutrition are<br /> enormous, and the aggregate costs of food and nutrition insecurity at the national<br /> level impose a heavy burden on efforts to foster sustained economic growth and<br /> improved general welfare.<br /> <br /> For you as a Development Instructor, it is essential that you can recognize the signs<br /> of under-nutrition. There are many simple ways to counter these conditions and you<br /> can be part of improving the situation for the people in the community where you<br /> work.<br /> <br /> Malnutrition has been part and parcel of the lives for the Poor throughout history and<br /> millions of people have died from hunger and diseases because of that. In spite of an<br /> enormous increase in global food production with enough food to feed the entire<br /> world population today, hunger and malnutrition is still a curse in the lives of<br /> millions of people.<br /> <br /> Since the end of the Second World War, food security has been defined as a human<br /> right for the first time in history. Still there is a long way to go before we achieve<br /> this. There are many projects and efforts working in this field, but the solutions are<br /> not radical enough and there tend to be an attitude of neglect from world media – an<br /> acceptance of the situation; “it has always been like this”.<br /> <br /> But a life is a life – regardless where in the world you are born, and<br /> undernourishment is an unworthy condition to accept in the 21 st Century.
Directive:
1. The teacher gives a presentation based on Chapter 11 from David Werner’s<br /> book “Where there is no Doctor” and Todd Benson’s report “Africa’s Food<br /> and Nutrition Security Situation”.<br /> <br /> 2. The class discuss ways to counter the condition of undernourishment using the<br /> tips from Chapter 11 from David Werner’s book “Where there is no Doctor”<br /> and Christian Fenger’s “40 Green World Actions”, Chapter 4: “Sufficient and<br /> Nutritious Food”.
