Food system and demand generation
The Vegetables for All program will create FitFood Zones (FFZs) in low-income estates in urban and peri-urban areas with a minimum of 1,000 households and 10 mama mbogas. FFZs are the last mile/point of purchase for delivering a variety of fresh, safe, and accessible vegetables to BoP households. The program will support mama mbogas to source vegetables from Good Agricultural Practices (GAP)-compliant suppliers, support the uptake of digital solutions for mama mbogas to access vegetables, create business-to-business mentorship opportunities, and support county governments to improve market infrastructure. To encourage BoP parents of children 3-11 years to buy and consume more vegetables, the program will include a demand generation component. This will be implemented through a communication campaign, including above-the-line (ATL) activities (mass media such as radio and television), below-the-line (BTL) activities (market activations and others), and FFZ branding.
