From Famine Hero to Farmer - Dr Steve Collins

His work in famine-stricken Darfur gave him the opportunity to save countless lives through community-based nutrition schemes, where he won international awards for the creation of effective delivery systems for the life-saving Plumpy-Nut nutrition bar.

He has wrestled with dairy and other commercial lobbies, NGO’s, and the might of the WHO to bring sustainable food systems and food sovereignty to impoverished nations who in his own words “ the world has forgotten “

 

After a career serving and saving communities from starvation, and after setting up his own charity, Valid Nutrition, Dr Steve Collins has retreated to the wilds of west cork to further his research into nutrition, populating the hillside and feeding the local community with organic blueberries.
