     Strengthening Communities

    A common national and international strategy focused on addressing issues of poor health and hygiene, poverty, and malnutrition is providing monetary aid to countries in need. These efforts, according to organizations which include UNICEF, World Vision, and the Clinton Global Initiative, are not enough. Rather, attention needs to be focused on developing communities, where meticulous is attention paid to “stimulating local agriculture and food development—particularly the economic and social empowerment of women, the primary caregivers in most households” (Editors, PloS Magazine, 2008).
