  • Sulsâme Final Report
    Sulsâme Final Report By: Marina Nguyen, Myriam Vanier, Kyle Ye McGill University Student Experience Enhancement Fund (SEEF) Faculty of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences Project Introduction As creative Food Science students, we have always had a passion for Product Development and experimenting in the kitchen. Our classwork has allowed us to expand our knowledge on topics such as sensory evaluation, quality assurance, nutrition and food packaging. As we neared the end of our journey at McGill, we longed to have the experience and support to foster a project which could encompass all of our Food Science knowledge. When we learned about the Student Experience Enhancement Fund we realized this could be our opportunity to develop out of classroom hands on learning. With our drive for the utilization of our scientific skills to serve a better cause we hoped to be able to utilize our innovative thinking to improve the development, safety and distribution of food in developing countries. Participating in IFT’s (Institute of Food Technologists) DSDC Competition (Developing Solutions for Developing Countries) allowed us to explore the limitless opportunities to address global foo challenges. This year, the Developing Solutions for Developing Countries (DSDC) competition focused on utilizing groundnut processing by-products. This food waste is rich in polyphenols and nutrients such as protein and fiber; as such, recycling this by-product by developing an innovative solution for a developing country would decrease food waste in the industry while providing essential nutrients to those in need. Our aim was to target a developing country which not only produced enough groundnut by-products for us to use as raw materials, but also a region with a dire need for safe, nutritious, affordable food.

SITUATION ANALYSIS Description of the disaster In early 2017, Chad was found to have pockets of severe food insecurity with population facing serious nutritional issues. According to the Cadre Harmonisé, of March 2017, about 13,102 people were then in Emergency (phase 4) while an estimated 367,218 people in four districts were in Crisis (phase 3). These vulnerable people needed food, affordable basic commodities, rehabilitation and nutrition, health and other livelihood assistance and capacity-building for resilience. An estimated 1,886,800 people in 18 districts were in Stress (phase 2). These people needed support to build resilience, develop their livelihoods and keep severe malnutrition at acceptably low levels. Projected figures were showing a worsening situation with more than 897,408 people in Crisis or Emergency situation (Phase3 to 5) from June to August 2017. Humanitarian efforts of the government and its partners were not able to curb the progression of the difficulty of accessing food.

  • Aryahi Gupta Canyon Crest Academy San Diego, CA, USA Chad, Malnutrition
    Aryahi Gupta Canyon Crest Academy San Diego, CA, USA Chad, Malnutrition Chad: Incorporation of Lentils in a Malnourished Diet The Central African country of Chad is ethnically diverse, with a colorful culture, and over 200 different groups within its population. After gaining independence, unfortunately, they have stumbled into poverty and malnourishment. Chad has come to rely on foreign aid and food assistance to subsidize daily nutrients. Frequent droughts and other disasters prevent a surplus of crops from being successfully grown, and Chadians barely consume enough calories to make it through the day. Nonetheless, its people persevere, working to sustain their families. The addition of lentils, a nutritiously beneficial legume, can integrate more subsistence into the Chadian diet as they not only have enough protein and calories to sustain the average person, but encourage self-sufficiency in the nation. Chad is a landlocked country in north-central Africa with a population of 15.5 million people. Out of the total population, 23% occupy urban areas, and 77% rural villages (“Urban Population”). Of those families, 50% follow Islam, 25% are Protestant, and 20% are Roman Catholic. The average household consists of 5.8 people living in a circular hut made of adobe and straw (“Data Center: International Indicators.”). Chad has three distinct climate regions. The northern region of the country is home to the hot and dry Sahara desert along with grassy plains in the south. The midsection of Chad is referenced as the Sahelian zone, a semi-arid transition from the hot and dry desert to the tropical and subtropical regions of the savanna.
