fight against malnutrition in Timor Leste

The first one and unique food plant of Timor Leste has just started its production in the capital Dili, under the auspices of the World Food Programme (WFP), a UN agency. It manufactures fortified foods, a mixture of corn, soybeans, sugar and oils, embellished with 17 vitamins and minerals. This food is intended primarily for mothers and infants:

"The plant packages them in small bags that women can retire to the hospital, and it is cooked very easily"

, said WFP Representative Timor Leste, Joan Fleuren on Radio Australia.

This plant food will create jobs, provide an outlet for small local farmers and market gardeners. And then produce locally will be cheaper than importing the WFP.

PENANG, July 16, 2010 (IRIN) - In Timor-Leste, one of the world's youngest and poorest in the world, the mortality rate of infants and children under five years, as fertility rates have declined significantly, according The last Demographic and Health Survey (DHS) conducted in the country.

Preliminary data from the survey - all results will be published later this year - indicate that Timor-Leste's fertility rate now stands at 5.7 births per woman aged 15 to 49 years, two fewer children than in 2003. In addition, since the last survey in 2003, the mortality rate fell from 60 to 44 deaths per 1000 births for infants and

from 83 to 64 deaths per 1 000 births among children under five years.

"With mortality rates for infants and children under five years, the decrease is quite dramatic, welcomed Rui de Araujo, who served as Minister of Health of Timor-Leste between 2001 and 2007.
to believe the experts, the fall in fertility is due to the higher education of women, increasing the number of women in the workforce and a greater supply of health services reproductive. "We were pleased to see an increase in the use of trained midwives and other maternal health services, Marisa Harrison said the Health Alliance International (HAI), a nongovernmental organization (NGO) that works with government to develop care for mothers and newborns.
The survey also shows an increase in demand for family planning.

"The most surprising change has revealed that the DHS lies in the fact that 72 percent of married women now want to space births or stop having children. This rate was only 35 percent in 2003, "said Melinda Mousaco, National Director of Marie Stopes International, a specialized agency in the field of sexual health.
