Health and Nutrition programs at FERDA focus on enhancing access to health services and nutrition programs to improve the overall health and well-being of communities.
Our Health and Nutrition initiatives support primary healthcare facilities with equipment, supplies, and capacity building for healthcare workers to deliver quality services. FERDA conducts regular nutrition screenings to identify and treat malnutrition cases, particularly among children under five and pregnant or lactating women.
We implement community-based management of acute malnutrition, providing therapeutic and supplementary feeding programs for affected individuals. Our health education campaigns address preventable diseases, immunization, maternal health, and family planning, while mobile health clinics reach remote communities with essential services, ensuring healthcare access for isolated populations facing geographical or security barriers.
