Dedicated to Transforming Nutrition Across Africa

The African Center for Family Nutrition (ACEFANUT) is a pioneering organization established to address the growing challenges of malnutrition and food insecurity across the African continent. With a steadfast commitment to evidence-based interventions, we work tirelessly to improve nutritional outcomes for families, particularly women and children, who are most vulnerable to malnutrition.

Through strategic partnerships with governments, international organizations, community leaders, and local stakeholders, we implement sustainable programs that create lasting impact. Our multidisciplinary team of nutritionists, researchers, and development experts brings together decades of experience in public health, community development, and nutritional science to drive meaningful change where it's needed most.
