Arogya Sakhis Celebrates Rashtriya Poshan Mah, 2020!
During the COVID times, the saying holds true “Let’s build wellness rather than treating disease”.
To demonstrate the importance of nutrition & healthy eating, Arogya sakhis from 30 villages in Loha celebrated ‘Poshan Mah’ by organising Ran Bhajya awareness with its food recipe demonstration at Sonkhed & Madki villages in Nanded. Sakhis educate participants about nutrient meal intake while encouraging them to practice it by growing their own food at home. In September 2020, over 100 pregnant women, adolescents & mothers of children in the age group of 0 to 5 years attended the awareness sessions.
