What better way to mark World Hunger Day than by learning a practical skill that can help nourish babies and create a source of income for mothers? 🌍✨

At the Asenema Epicenter in Ghana’s Eastern Region, THP-Ghana joined community partners for a hands-on Celemix training as part of this year’s World Hunger Day celebration.

Made from locally available ingredients such as maize and soybeans, Celemix is a simple yet powerful, nutritious mix that can support healthier meals for children and families. 🥣🌽

This year’s theme, “The End of Hunger is in Our Hands,” could not be more true. From the hands that plant seeds, to the hands preparing nutritious meals to the hands teaching others new skills, every action matters. ✋🏾

Ending hunger always starts with people leading the way.

Today, on World Hunger Day, we celebrate Adjoma, a woman farmer who is challenging stereotypes and proving that there is no limit to what a woman can achieve. 🌽

This year’s World Hunger Day theme, “In Our Own Hands,” is reflected perfectly in her story.

Through The Hunger Project’s Vision, Commitment and Action (VCA) workshops, Adjoma embraced the belief that change begins with people taking action for themselves and their communities.

That mindset has helped her build and manage an eight-acre maize farm, support her family, keep her children in school, and inspire other women in her community.

Her hard work and determination earned her recognition last year as the Best Farmer in her district, proving that when women are empowered with knowledge, confidence, and opportunity, entire communities move closer to a future without hunger.

Adjoma’s story reminds us that the fight against hunger is truly in our own hands.

Today is World Hunger Day.

World Hunger Day was founded in 2011 by The Hunger Project to raise awareness of the global food crisis and inspire action.

Today, it is a globally recognized moment when millions of people, organizations, businesses and governments come together to take action toward a world without hunger.

Hunger is created by systems of inequity we have the power to change. Every day, communities around the world are proving what’s possible. Women are stepping into leadership and transforming local decision-making. Farmers are adopting climate-smart practices and restoring their land. Young people are building new solutions for resilient food systems. Communities are mobilizing to shape their own development.

A world without hunger is not a distant dream. It is being built right now. This World Hunger Day, May 28, 2026, we invite you to see it, share it and be part of it because a world without hunger is not something we wait for. It is something we create together.

Teenage pregnancy should not define a girl’s future.

Since 2024, working together with The Hunger Project- Switzerland, The Hunger Project-Ghana has been on a three-year journey supporting 11 young moms through the Economic Empowerment for Teenage Mothers Project.

Through the project, these teen moms are gaining employable vocational skills that will enable them to earn a living and build independent futures for themselves and their children.

The project is supporting young women to rebuild their confidence and participate fully in economic and social life, creating new possibilities for themselves, their families, and their communities.

Efforts to tackle youth unemployment and strengthen livelihoods in Ghana’s Eastern Region are gaining momentum through the Youth in Entrepreneurship and Agribusiness Project (YEAP). The initiative is equipping young people with the skills, structures, and opportunities needed to succeed in agribusiness.

A key milestone is the formation of the Apese Youth Cooperative Maize Farming and Marketing Society under the Supresu Epicenter, reflecting YEAP’s goal of driving socio-economic empowerment by improving employment and incomes.

Through targeted training across 13 Farmer-Based Organizations (FBOs) in Abehenease, Darmang, and Supresu, participants gained practical knowledge in cooperative principles, governance, and group formation—strengthening their ability to access markets and negotiate better prices.

The initiative also promotes inclusive leadership, with strong female representation in key roles, reinforcing women’s role as drivers of community transformation.

As these cooperatives grow, they offer a promising pathway to reducing unemployment and building sustainable livelihoods across the region.

Salomey works as an Animator at the Subriso Awosoase Epicenter.

In the communities we partner with, Animators are the spark plugs for local action.

They bring community members together to take action and build a better future for themselves.

They also encourage and support people to lead their own activities in areas like health, education, nutrition, and women’s empowerment.

Their work helps people move from feeling “I can’t do this” to believing “I can do this.”

At The Hunger Project–Ghana, we recognize that protecting Adolescents requires not just good intentions but strong, informed law enforcement and civil service agencies that understand their role in safeguarding adolescents.

On April 23rd, The Hunger Project–Ghana convened partners from the Ghana Health Service, Ghana Education Service, CHRAJ, and DOVVSU in Koforidua for a capacity-building workshop under the Adolescent Health Project.

The workshop aimed to strengthen the capacity of these agencies to better understand, apply, and enforce laws and policies that protect adolescents’ rights, health, and well-being.

The Adolescent Health Project is being implemented by The Hunger Project–Ghana in collaboration with ora Kinderhilfe and funded by Bundesministerium für wirtschaftliche Zusammenarbeit und Entwicklung (BMZ)
