Food consumption and lifestyle and their impact on cardiovascular diseases
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is amongst the leading causes of death globally and is a growing concern in the African community in Germany as well. Over the years, the African Community in Germany have started experiencing gradual increase of deaths related to CVD. The large-scale migrations of Africans to Germany especially in the 90s and early 2000s have seen themselves gradually aging and as a result prone to CVD.
This initiative seeks to address and remediate these problems through educating and raise awareness on their diets and lifestyle.

- To educate and raise awareness of CVD
- To prevent CVD
