highlighted that this was the second donation to Namibia, following a donation to the Namibian Government of 29 metric tons of ready to use supplementary feeding which was distributed in 2020.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In the attainment of the second Sustainable Development Goals which strives to \u201cend hunger, achieve food security and improved nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture\u201d the Government of Brazil donated one hundred thousand US dollars to the Government of Namibia.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The funds will support an integrated project to improve availability and access to nutritious food using a food systems approach in the Hardap, Kunene, Ohangwena, Omaheke, and Otjozondjupa regions.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Highlighting the lessons learned, Dr. George Fedha of the World Food Programme shared that the second phase of the project focuses on stimulating the local economy by enabling smallholder farmers to produce food that they can sell to local communities.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This was a lesson in providing sustainable solutions to communities,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"alignnormal\"><!-- MetaSlider 271797
