The “Integrated fight against chronic malnutrition in Mali” project, funded by Global Affairs Canada (GAC), aims to improve the nutritional status of children under five and women of childbearing age in the Kayes, Kita and Sikasso regions. Over a five-year period, the project will address three major causes of chronic malnutrition: access to adequate healthcare, a healthy environment and a healthy, diversified diet. These three parameters are greatly influenced by gender inequalities, which mainly affect women and adolescent girls. The project is being carried out by a consortium of three NGOs, led by Action contre la Faim (ACF) and implemented by two other national NGOs, the Association Malienne pour le Développement Communautaire (AMADECOM) and the Convergence des Femmes Rurales pour la Sovereigneté Alimentaire (COFERSA).
