About The Project
Launched in 2018, the "Meri Poushtik Rasoi" cooking contest embodies a comprehensive approach to tackling malnutrition across India. This nationwide initiative, conceived in partnership with Idobro Impact Solution, aims to uncover, celebrate, and popularize nutrition-rich native recipes from diverse Indian cuisines. These recipes, leveraging local and traditional ingredients, methods, and knowledge, offer viable solutions to combat malnutrition at both urban and rural community levels.
The contest's significance extends beyond merely identifying recipes; it is an effort to collate and appreciate the vast culinary heritage of India that is intrinsically nutritious and suited to local dietary needs. It is an initiative to bring traditional, wholesome food to the forefront of modern dietary practices, making it relevant and accessible to a wider audience. This aligns with broader goals of advocating for healthier lifestyles and raising awareness about the potential of traditional foods in addressing nutritional challenges.
Over three seasons, "Meri Poushtik Rasoi" has seen remarkable participation, attracting 1,500 entries from culinary enthusiasts and professionals across 114 cities, 23 states, and 3 union territories. This extensive engagement highlights the contest’s success in resonating with people from varied cultural and geographical backgrounds, underscoring the rich diversity of India's culinary landscape.
In orchestrating this contest, Idobro Impact Solution played a pivotal role, particularly in the aspect of visual communication and marketing. They undertook the crucial task of appointing a specialized agency for the design of multiple collaterals, including standees and backdrops. These collaterals were essential in visually representing the ethos and spirit of the "Meri Poushtik Rasoi" contest, thereby enhancing its appeal and reach.
