Argentina issues food cards to low-income families

Here is how Argentina is fighting malnutrition among low-income families.

Argentina’s new government has begun issuing food cards to low-income families in an attempt to fight malnutrition.

The card gives them between $50 and $90 a month to buy certain food items.

The country is in the midst of an economic crisis and is gearing up to restructure about $100bn in debt.
