Gedeon Kalenga, a member of a community nutrition group in Masi Manimba. The community works together on a voluntary basis to grow food for 35 families, but they only have two watering cans to irrigate the fields - meaning back-breaking work going up and down the hill to refill the cans. Background UK aid has supported the government of DRC and aid agencies including Action Against Hunger to provide emergency nutrition response programmes across DRC in 2010 and 2011. In some areas, the communities have taken some of the ideas that Action Against Hunger brought to them, and organised themselves to tackle malnutrition from the ground up - by forming their own co-operative farms and self-support groups.
