Tell Me About Award:

Because food security is a fundamental right, because Stop Hunger and Women In Africa believe in the potential and determination of women to lift the most vulnerable communities out of hunger – together they created the Women for Zero Hunger program, in order to support associations fighting against hunger and food insecurity in Africa.

“Women for Zero Hunger” will enable 3 non-profit organizations:

• to be visible: to inspire, to be recognized and to have more impact;

• to be mentored: to benefit from expert advice and personalized support;

• to be funded: each of the 3 associative structures will receive €5,000. At the end of the mentoring program, one of the three finalist structures will be chosen by the jury members on the basis of pre-established criteria and will receive an additional €5,000 in financial support.
