Health campaign before the end of the school year in Cochabamba

In the final stretch before the end of the school year, we have carried out the second health campaign in schools in Cochabamba in coordination with the Vacas Health Centre.  By doing this, we have been able to take weight and height data from the pupils of five primary schools in Juntutuyo, Pedregal, Parko Kocha, Cañada Grande and Vacas to determine their nutritional status. At the same time we have provided antiparasitic and vitamin supplements.
At the same time, five canteens were open until the last day of school, at which time, coinciding with the end of the school term, we prepared part of the 176 kg of fresh vegetables and greens (onions, radishes, chard, lettuce, etc.) that were harvested in the last harvest of the school gardens for the students’ consumption.
