Kitchen gardens improve nutritional diversity of Kondhs - Basudev Mahapatra

Overcoming taboos and becoming more knowledgeable about abundant local foods, malnourished Kondh people in Odisha are bringing diversity to their food baskets through backyard kitchen gardens

Kandhamal/ Kahalandi, Odisha:
“Unless we consume a variety of foods that include vegetables and greens, pulses and legumes, and meat and fish along with rice, where will we get adequate nutrition? How can our children have proper physical and cognitive growth?” asked Golapi Kanhar.

The question from Golapi Kanhar (35) of remote Kasirikhol village in Kandhamal district, a Kondh woman with primary education, reflects increasing awareness about nutrition and food diversity within the community.

This renewed view of Kondh women on nutrition management raises hope for Kandhamal that still battles to overcome malnutrition. Nutrition management through food diversity is the new practice in the Kondh tribal community of Odisha, with women leading the change by becoming their family’s nutrition manager.
