Tackling Child Malnutrition via Healthy Snacks: Cambodia

Overview

In Cambodia, child malnutrition is a major issue, exacerbated by the ready availability of processed snacks and soft drinks at most school stores and canteens. To combat this, Japanese social entrepreneur Oji Hiroko worked with local colleagues to launch a new initiative providing schools with tasty, healthy snacks. She has also developed an educational card game that provides a chance to teach kids about diet and nutrition, both in school and with their families.
