  Our action plan for helping Congo food security is understanding Congo and the problem of food security 


How bad is this situation? 

8% of kids under the age of 5-One million kids- suffer acute malnutrition, while six million kids suffer from chronic malnutrition.  Child mortality rates are 
among the highest in the world.


Where is Congo?

It is in west-central Africa and near the border. Congo seems to be a good place for farming but they don't seem to be using their resources to feed their hungry.  

What is food security? 

When all people at all times have access to sufficient, safe, nutritious food to maintain a healthy and active life.
