TFH has been actively involved in the development of a peace village called Pout, located about 50km from Dakar. It is a community building and sustainable initiative aimed at encouraging the local community to participate in sustainable farming and ecological practices, with a view to economic independence.
It plans to participate in the development of a new range of products (herbal teas, nutrient-rich dietary powders such as Baobab, Moringa, Jujube, healthy snacks, juices, nectars etc), and needs the nutrition breakdown of these products for its labels.
“The donation from NutriCalc will enable us to provide this service and train our colleagues in Senegal in the use of the software, in order to ensure accuracy of nutrition calculations,” said Farah Hossenally of Third World Family Humanitarian. “This generous donation will allow us to vastly reduce expenditure on expensive nutrition testing and thereby make cost-effective use of available resources for further development of the peace village.”
