We celebrated the phenomenal women of World Food Programme for #IWD2024 . The day was made even more special with a delicious lunch graciously offered by the men of World Food Programme_Africa, topped off with a beautiful poem reading. Here's to honoring and uplifting the incredible women in our midst!💫

This #InternationalWomensDay , we celebrate Priscilla, owner of Shepherd's Mills & producer of parboiled rice in Ghana. Through the World Food Programme and Mastercard Foundation initiative, Priscilla will increase her mill’s capacity and reduce post-harvest losses, creating jobs for 500 more women.

Celebrating #InternationalWomensDay w/a focus on empowering women in food systems. In West Africa, women are key players from production to consumption, yet their contributions often go unnoticed. Together w/UN, NGOs, and partners like Mastercard Foundation, let's keep going. #IWD2024
