Over the past few weeks, The Hunger Project-Ghana had the pleasure of hosting three generations of the Walter family in Ghana.

For over a decade, the Walter family has invested millions of dollars in communities in Ghana, Burkina Faso, and Uganda, supporting work across The Hunger Project’s Epicenters in health, WASH, and agriculture.

This visit was an opportunity to connect with the people at the heart of this work.

From playing football in Yeneima to sharing meals in Adjena Donor and listening to community members tell their stories in Fesibame, the family gained a deeper understanding of The Hunger Project’s Vision, Commitment, and Action (VCA) approach and how communities are shaping their own futures.

A new ICT Centre has been commissioned at the Domi Achiansa Epicenter in Ghana’s Eastern Region, as part of The Hunger Project-Ghana’s activities to commemorate International Youth Day 2026.

Speaking at the event, Mrs. Agatha Quayson, Country Leader of The Hunger Project-Ghana, called on the Government to prioritise policies and investments that strengthen digital infrastructure so that young people in rural communities are not left behind.

The ICT Centre will provide young people in surrounding communities with access to:

Communities are strongest when young people have a seat at the table.

This International Youth Day, we recognize the creativity, leadership and determination of youth who are driving change where it matters most. Different communities may face different challenges, but the aspiration for a better future is one we all share.

The evidence is clear: breastfeeding is one of the simplest and most powerful ways to protect a child's health. It provides infants with the essential nutrients they need to grow, strengthens their immune systems, protects against illness, and supports healthy brain development.

At The Hunger Project, we know that ending hunger begins with good nutrition. That is why we invest in maternal and child health by promoting exclusive breastfeeding for the first six months of life, followed by appropriate complementary feeding, giving every child the healthiest possible start in life.

This World Breastfeeding Week, we reaffirm our commitment to improving maternal and child nutrition by strengthening the capacity of health workers and community volunteers in Infant and Young Child Feeding (IYCF) practices.

From community animators conducting home visits to Mother-to-Mother Support Groups providing practical guidance and encouragement, our community-led approach is helping mothers overcome breastfeeding challenges with confidence.

Our sustained community-based interventions are making a difference. Across more than 200 communities in Ghana, we have contributed to:
🧡 A 22% increase in household knowledge of exclusive breastfeeding.
🧡 A 19% increase in the proportion of mothers practicing exclusive breastfeeding.

This World Breastfeeding Week, we celebrate every mother, family, health worker, and community volunteer who is championing breastfeeding.

The Hunger Project-Ghana, through the HOPE-MCH (Holistic Opportunities for Positive Engagement in Maternal and Child Health) Project, has convened a one-day Partner Reflection Workshop to take stock of progress made so far and chart a clear path toward a successful third year.

Delivering the keynote address, the Eastern Regional Director of Health Services, Dr. Damien Punguyire, described maternal and child health as the foundation of sustainable socioeconomic development. He called on partners to use the workshop to develop strategies to sustain the project's gains beyond 2026.

Speaking on behalf of The Hunger Project-Ghana's Country Leader, Esther Fiscian, Partnerships and Resource Mobilisation Manager, noted that the feedback gathered during the workshop will serve as a guide for the next phase of the project. She thanked partners for their support and commitment throughout the project so far.

The Holistic Opportunities for Positive Engagement in Maternal and Child Health (HOPE-MCH) Project is made possible through the support of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

At its heart, HOPE-MCH exists to put child wellbeing at the centre of everything it does, ensuring that children under three, their mothers, and pregnant women across seven (7) regions in Ghana have the care and support they need from their families, their communities, and the health system to thrive.

Young people are key to building stronger economies.

Through the Youth in Entrepreneurship and Agribusiness Project (YEAP), The Hunger Project-Ghana, in partnership with Das Hunger Projekt and with funding from the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ), is helping young people aged 18–35 develop the skills and confidence to build successful agribusinesses.

Working alongside the Business Advisory Centers (BACs) of the District Assemblies, youth from the Abehenease, Darmang, and Supresu Epicenters are receiving practical training in entrepreneurship, business planning, and agribusiness management.

Participants are learning how to identify business opportunities, develop viable business plans, and manage sustainable enterprises along the agribusiness value chain.

In total, 3,000 young people will directly benefit, and approximately 12,000 additional individuals will indirectly benefit from increased incomes, improved employment opportunities, and enhanced food security.

While smallholder farmers produce the bulk of Ghana's food crops, many find themselves in the paradoxical position of facing food insecurity and hunger.

Together, Fair Distribution and The Hunger Project are working to support smallholder farmers with the knowledge, skills, and resources they need to build resilient agricultural systems and reduce hunger.

Our hearts are with communities across Ghana affected by recent floods. We extend our deepest condolences to those who have lost loved ones, homes, livelihoods, and possessions.

As heavy rains continue and flood warnings remain in effect, we encourage everyone to follow guidance from the Ghana Meteorological Agency, the National Disaster Management Organisation (NADMO), and other emergency services. If you are in a flood-prone area, prioritise your safety, avoid walking or driving through floodwaters, move to higher ground where necessary, and check on neighbours and loved ones who may need assistance.

To everyone affected, The Hunger Project-Ghana stands with you, and we remain hopeful that through collective action, our communities will recover and rebuild stronger.
