COMMUNITY KITCHEN

To improve the health, nutrition, and well-being of the RMG workers through developing access to nutrition, diet, hygiene, and sanitation education through a replicable inclusive business model in 2 factories and in their communities by 2023, ACE is aiming to develop a Community Kitchen. RMG workers lead a Laborious and very occupied lifestyle and have no seconds to even breathe quietly therefore, they prefer food items that require minimum effort and can quickly be processed and cooked. On their daily diet, food stuffs like eggs, noodles, and smacked potatoes are frequently consumed by female RMG workers. But they are less or not skilled in preparing a quick, and tasty meal. The Community Kitchen will be designed with the required machinery and equipment to provide extensive support in food safety knowledge development to ensure that the RMG workers have access to healthy and nutritious food. We would like to create 1 community kitchen or cooking club models where the family members will be able to learn healthy cooking and produce healthy meals and snack items.

    RMG workers lead a hectic lifestyle; therefore, they prefer food items that require a minimum effort and can quickly be processed and cooked. Food items like eggs, noodles, and snacked potatoes are frequently consumed by female RMG workers. But they are not skilled in preparing a healthy and tasty meal. The Community Kitchen was designed with the required machinery and equipment to provide extensive support in food safety knowledge development to ensure that the RMG workers have access to safe and nutritious food. We created a community cooking club model where the family members will be able to learn healthy cooking and produce healthy meals and snack items. The community kitchen was established in the worker’s vicinity and the location has been selected at Hemayetpur, Savar. Modern and traditional cooking facilities will be available here. Expert cooks and Master trainers were available to train and demonstrate how to prepare healthy food preserving its nutrients and value at low prices. Workers and their dependents joined here to take training, cooking and buy nutritious food at an affordable price. A partnership model was developed with the Fair Price Shop so that the community kitchen could also sell food items to the factories through the Fair Price shops.
