Improving Nutrition, Health & Education.
The One egg program uses the nutritional, environmental, social, and economic power of the egg to support vulnerable populations in areas of greatest nutritional need. By investing in sustainable egg production and training, One egg empowers local communities to improve diets, enhance food security, and build resilient food systems.
Our Challenge
In Vanuatu, childhood malnutrition remains a serious and ongoing concern.
Despite the country’s natural resources, many families struggle to access affordable, high-quality protein.
According to UNICEF and regional nutrition data, around 30% of children under five in Vanuatu are affected by stunting, a condition caused by long-term inadequate nutrition. Stunting limits not only physical growth but also brain development, learning ability, and future earning potential.
Protein deficiency during early childhood is a key contributor to this challenge. For many children, animal-source protein such as eggs is either unavailable, unaffordable, or consumed irregularly, particularly in rural and outer island communities.
Our Vision
To unlock the potential of children in Vanuatu by improving access to affordable, nutritious protein starting with one egg.

The One Egg Programme Vanuatu aims to improve child nutrition by harnessing the nutritional, social, and economic power of eggs.
