National Nutrition Month 2024: Mukti’s Mission to Improve Rural Wellness

National Nutrition Month 2024 is a vital annual observance in India, celebrated from September 1st to 30th, dedicated to promoting the significance of proper nutrition in everyday life. In rural communities, improved nutrition can greatly enhance health outcomes, yet factors such as income inequality, limited access to food, and health disparities often hinder progress.

Recognizing these challenges, Mukti’s “Swastho Songini” team launched a community-focused campaign to raise awareness during National Nutrition Month. The initiative, which began on September 16th, 2024, uses engaging methods like quizzes, dramas, and other activities to spread knowledge about nutrition.

The campaign will continue throughout October, with three additional sessions planned to deepen its impact. So far, 50 community members have benefitted from the first session, and participants in the quiz were rewarded with complimentary gifts, further motivating engagement.
