This Expert Group works to raise awareness and build capacity for hydrothermal processing of whole grains to reduce hidden hunger in Kenya. This project will equip small and medium-sized food companies in Kenya with knowledge and skills to use hydrothermal processing of whole grains, an approach that increases the bioavailability of micronutrients inside the grains and enables their easy absorption. This Expert Group is a collaboration between Inclusive Business Sweden, Hidden in Grains and BioInnovate Africa.
