Indian comics and cartoons focused on nutrition
The Hindu tells of a project for promoting nutrition through comics and/or cartoons for children:
In a unique initiative aimed at combating malnutrition, the Centre has decided to disseminate important messages on the value of good nutrition to children through a Cartoon Coalition.Well that's a great idea, one I don't see USA comics and cartoon producers making a serious effort to duplicate, as they continue to be lost in their politically motivated leftist agendas. This is what comics and cartoons should really be utilized for, scientific research like nutrition and healthy eating. And if more comics writers and artists in the west were to devote time to subjects like these instead of far-left agendas, we'd be getting somewhere more positive.
The program expects to create nutrition awareness by engaging children through captivating storytelling through their favourite cartoon characters like “Chacha Chowdhary” and drive positive behaviour change in communities across the nation for desired nutritional outcomes.
[...] The Poshan Utsav aims to leverage popular cartoon characters to advocate holistic nutrition among children through collaboration between the Ministry of Women and Child Development and Amar Chitra Katha.
