DR Congo: Innovations Recorded in the Fight Against Malnutrition in Maisha and Mutshatsha 1
This article shows how, in Lualaba Province in southern Democratic Republic of the Congo, the Maisha and Mutshatsha 1 health zones are responding to a severe nutritional crisis affecting children's futures. A recent survey revealed a worrying number of severe malnutrition cases, highlighting the extent of challenges linked to poverty, infrastructure gaps, food insecurity, and limited access to balanced diets. In response, innovative community-led initiatives like the “Positive Deviance Hearth” program have been launched. This approach relies on local mobilization and the active involvement of families and community committees to build capacity in nutrition, health, and hygiene.
The program goes beyond emergency response, offering a sustainable approach to combating malnutrition, supported by training, regular family support, and careful resource management. Despite obstacles such as limited funding or cultural resistance, the commitment of local actors, institutional partners, and community leaders is driving tangible change. The initiative is part of a broader movement led by World Vision DRC through the ENOUGH campaign, which aims to fundamentally transform nutritional practices in vulnerable areas. Through this collective action, the goal is clear: to secure a healthier future for the children of Lualaba.
