WFP also supports women living with HIV, by providing them with support for the implementation of income-generating activities such as market gardening and processing of agricultural products. Thus, WFP works with local food producers and processors to ensure supply of nutrient-rich foods such as yellow maize, red cowpea, unpolished parboiled rice, fortified maize flour and infant flours.</div> <aside class="accordion__item-side"> <div class="accordion__item-image"> <img src="https://www.wfp.org/sites/default/files/styles/page_accordion/public/images/benin-country-nutrition.jpg?itok=qS0xIJJV" alt="WFP staff serving nutrient-rich meal to alleviate malnutrition in Benin"> </div> </aside> </dd> <dt class="accordion__item-title "> <div> <span>Capacity strengthening</span> </div> </dt> <dd class="accordion__item-panel "> <div class="accordion__item-content">WFP strengthens the capacities of local and national institutions to allow transition to national ownership of a sustainable integrated school meals programme.
