Nutrition & Education International
Nutrition & Education International (NEI) is a nonprofit organization based in Pasadena, CA, dedicated to eradicating malnutrition in Afghanistan through innovative agricultural practices and emergency food aid. The organization has trained over 125,000 farmers in soybean cultivation, promoting this protein-rich crop as a sustainable solution to food insecurity.
In addition to its focus on soybean farming, NEI empowers women by providing skill development and entrepreneurship training in areas such as tailoring and small-scale farming. Their ongoing efforts include delivering emergency food packages and firewood to internally displaced families in Kabul, addressing immediate humanitarian needs while fostering long-term self-sufficiency in the community.
