During a reflection meeting, the lack of kitchen gardens in ECD centers emerged as a major cause of malnutrition among children. The CVA group collaborated with local leaders and organized community “Umuganda” efforts, successfully building kitchen gardens at four ECD centers across four cells. These gardens now provide vegetables for about 180 children, improve child nutrition, and serve as models for household replication. This initiative not only addressed immediate nutritional needs but also inspired broader community involvement and sustainable health practices
