World Vision Aids 11,000 Infants in Northen Uganda

World Vision has given food supplements to over 11,000 infants in northern Uganda in the year, an effort aimed at fighting malnutrition among children living in internally displaced people's camps in war-torn Northern Uganda.

The organisation recently marked its farmers' day, which aimed at reviewing World Vision's end of year activities in improving household agricultural production among those displaced.

"We have enrolled and given supplementary feeds to 11,885 malnourished children living in the various camps across the region so that they regain their health status," World Vision northern region communications officer, Mr Simon Mugenyi said.

The retired Anglican Bishop of Kitgum Diocese in Uganda has called the 20-year war in the northern part of the country a genocide.
