The objective of the Nutrir programme in Ecuador is to promote education in the fields of nutrition and health. It promotes healthy eating habits, children's health, food safety, healthy food combination, the creation of low cost but nutritious recipes and the implementation of organic orchards. Nutrir efforts are focused on children that are within the group of nutritional vulnerability.
Nutrir works in the area of three specific themes :
- Education for Nutrition
- Ecological Alimentation
- Children's Health
Indeed, facing the challenges of the global food crisis, Nestlé's Nutrir Programme chose to focus on education, sustainable development and environmental care, in solidarity with the most vulnerable areas of the country.
Several organisations have partnered in our efforts to tackle these since the inception of the programme:
- Foundation Solidarity Action
- Foundation Ganas
- Botanic Garden
- Foundation Smile Operation
- Foundation Cecilia Rivadeneria
