Overview

Malnutrition remains one of the major challenges facing the Democratic Republic of Congo, particularly affecting rural and peri-urban populations. Despite abundant natural resources, many families remain dependent on food imports, which are often costly and sometimes of uncertain nutritional quality. In this book, ""Self-Sufficiency in Food in a Poor Country: the Case of the DRC"", the author analyzes the root causes of food insecurity and demonstrates that simple, sustainable, local solutions can effectively address this problem. He highlights the importance of food self-sufficiency as a lever for public health, poverty reduction and community development. Family rabbit farming is presented as a strategic alternative to malnutrition. Accessible to households with limited means, and requiring little space and resources, rabbits provide protein-rich meat that can be easily integrated into the daily diet. The book details the nutritional, economic and social advantages of rabbit farming, as well as the practical steps involved in setting it up.
