Improving the eating habit and nutritional needs of underprivileged children
Oxfam has been working with the People Service Centre and the Hong Kong Community Dietitian Association to implement the “Mobile Nutrition Clinic” project. Through the project, underprivileged families are provided with nutrition knowledge, dietitian consultation and personalised nutrition improvement strategies.
Among participants, over 70% of the children showed significant improvement in their nutritional intake, and more than half of the children showed improvement in their digestive health and picky eating habits.
