What separates the school feeding programmes that move learning and nutrition outcomes from the ones that just deliver a photo-op. Six factors, five fixes, and what better policy would do.

An origin story for a small private nutrition practice in Nairobi — the mistakes of the first six months, the reset, and what it taught me about teaching nutrition outside a clinic.

Most weight and diet problems in Nairobi are sleep-and-stress problems with food downstream. The biology, the loop, and a two-week reset that targets the upstream entry points first.
Comprehensive approaches to nutrition and health challenges.

Early Childhood Development encompasses the physical, cognitive, linguistic, and social-emotional development of children from conception to age 8. Our approach focuses on evidence-based interventions during the critical first 1000 days of life.

Our public health approach focuses on strengthening health systems, building institutional capacity, and improving service delivery across Kenya. We work to create sustainable health infrastructure that can effectively address nutrition challenges at scale.

Our MIYCN approach focuses specifically on nutrition interventions for mothers, infants, and young children. We implement evidence-based feeding practices, provide targeted nutrition counseling, and support optimal nutrition during the critical early life periods.

Communities are at the heart of sustainable nutrition improvements. We highlight innovative solutions, successful interventions, and inspiring stories from communities across Kenya who are leading change in nutrition and health.

Arid and Semi-Arid Lands (ASAL) face unique nutrition challenges due to climate vulnerability, limited water resources, and pastoral livelihoods. Our work focuses on building resilience and providing targeted support during drought and emergency situations.
