Going hungry

This woman took time to talk with me about her family, pictured here, and going hungry. They eat once a day, usually just rice. She's worried about her youngest, who suffers from malnutrition. The vaccine record of the child sits on the table. Even though she's part of a farming family, they don't have enough to eat. Ways to improve farming, increase yields, and lower the work load, especially for women, need to be found.
