The Inter-American Development Bank -IADB-<\/a>\u00a0 signed an alliance with the Sugar Foundation -Fundazucar- of the Guatemalan Sugar Industry for the execution of the SPOON program (Sustaining Program for Improving Nutrition) that seeks to\u00a0prevent chronic malnutrition and reduce the risks of future obesity in children from 0 to 24 months of age living<\/strong>\u00a0in areas of high poverty in Colombia, Guatemala, and Mexico.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\n

In Guatemala, the SPOON initiative was implemented in the department of Baja Verapaz, located 150 kilometers (93 miles) north from the Capital, in the context of \u201cBetter Families\u201d program of Fundazucar because it shares the same objectives and is\u00a0an innovative self-management model driven by women that promotes behavior change to improve Safety Nutritional Food<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The program ended in May 2021 with a duration of 24 months and the\u00a0participation of 604 women from 39 communities of the 8 municipalities\u00a0<\/a>of Baja Verapaz. These women successfully completed the training for behavior change in the programmatic axes of: Self-esteem, Health and Nutrition, Responsible Motherhood and Fatherhood, and Reproductive Health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

The Sugar Foundation has worked with more than 532,000 women<\/strong>\u00a0who have been empowered and trained in food security and development for their family and community. This program is executed through\u00a0alliances with authorities and institutions\u00a0and, in this case, with social investors who relied on field experience to develop effective behavior change strategies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The positive results and\u00a0success stories of the Better Families program<\/a>\u00a0of the Sugar Foundation \u2013 Fundazucar- has led to the implementation by social investors: companies, foundations, and international organizations, to prevent chronic child malnutrition.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
