Back to writing after a long hiatus filled with wrapping up 2009, starting up 2010 and even taking 2 days off!
Over the past two weeks I've been hard at work, banging my head against the wall at times, trying to scale-up our malnutrition program from one district, Jhabua, to 500 villages throughout 5 districts in Southwest Madhya Pradesh, Jhabua, Alirajpur, Khandwa, Khargone, and Barwani. This includes not only the standard, but painful process of getting the proper government permissions, streamlining financials, and finalizing training curriculums, but also the daunting task of hiring 55+ people to work with us on the ground.
We're excited about hiring our new staff, especially since most will be from the communities in Southwest MP who we're trying to help, so we will not only be serving communities with malnutrition identification, treatment, and prevention, but will also be empowering and uplifting cool local women.
Over the next series of entries I will write about the challenges, some predicted, but many unexpected of bringing on new local staff into a nutrition program
