NUTRITION PROMOTION AND COLLECTIVE VEGETABLE GARDENING BY ADOLESCENT GIRLS: FEASIBILITY ASSESSMENT FROM A PILOT IN AFGHANISTAN
This study aimed to assess the feasibility of collective vegetable gardening into an existing development programme for adolescent girls as a means of improving awareness about health and nutrition and increasing vegetable consumption in Afghanistan. A one and half year pilot study tested the feasibility of layering an intervention that combined agricultural training and input support in Kabul, Parwan and Kapisa regions on an adolescent programme implemented by a non-government organisation.
