#SierraLeone remains in a challenging position according to the Global Hunger Index 2024. The country ranks 117th out of 127 countries assessed, with a GHI score of 31.2, placing it in the "serious" hunger category. While Sierra Leone has made some progress since 2000, reducing its GHI score from 57.2, the current situation shows that hunger is still a critical issue. This ranking indicates that despite efforts to improve #foodsecurity, undernourishment, child stunting, wasting, and mortality continue to be significant challenges. The country faces severe food insecurity due to factors such as economic instability, high inflation, and reliance on imports for essential foodstuffs. The impact of climate change and its effects on agricultural productivity, as well as limited access to basic services, further exacerbate the situation. With 39.8% of the population undernourished and child wasting and stunting rates alarmingly high, efforts to combat hunger remain vital for Sierra Leone’s future development. #saloneX. read the full report - globalhungerindex.org/rankin…

10 years ago in Malabo, African countries have committed to spending 10% of their national budgets on agriculture—today most are missing the target. To improve food security and agri-food systems, more investment is needed, argues @bougtere @AKADEMIYA2063. welthungerhilfe.org/global-f…
How much do African States spend on Agriculture?

How much do African States spend on Agriculture?

The continent is not achieving the goals set ten years ago in Malabo. Nevertheless, there has been growth, albeit on a lower level. New guidelines for public investment in agriculture are required.

What you’re describing Sir is ‘Women’s Empowerment’. Gender refers to both men and women where we are striving for equality between them. If both are empowered then the inequality gap remains the same. Clearly the picture is referring to Women, so let’s name it!

"We no longer have to spend 6h a day fetching water, we no longer drink water from the river which makes us sick", Sara from #SouthSudan told us. "I can see the new borehole from my house and get safe water whenever I need it. I am now able to grow my own vegetable garden".
