Children and Youth Health and Nutrition Project

Organization information

Association of Locally Empowered Youth in Mindanao (ALEY-M) Inc.

Location: Cagayan de Oro, Philippines

Summary

Children and youths living in remote areas in Mindanao are severely disadvantaged and most of them are severely malnourished. Most have difficulty going to school or completing the school year. The reason for this is poverty and lack of farming inputs in order for their parents to develop their farms and earn decent income from their harvest. Coupled with this is the frequent occurrence of severe storms which destroys farms making the farmer more poorer.
