Nutrition and income generation (NIGI) is crucial when people are affected by forced displacement. Wageningen University & Research, with partners, has started the NIGI-project in the west Nile Region (Uganda) where many refugees currently live on a monotonous diet with little or no access to fresh fruit or vegetables.

Home gardens provide an opportunity to add much needed fresh vegetables and fruits to the local diet, and can support consumption of key micronutrients such as vitamin A.
In this video, we show you how the NIGI project works. It provides not only in food but also income and job opportunities, through home gardens and capacity building activities.
