The Ghana zero hunger strategic review

The Ghanaian President, has launched the Ghana Zero Hunger Strategic Review Report, which aims at charting a sustainable path to end hunger, food insecurity, and all forms of malnutrition in Ghana by 2030. The report was initiated by the World Food Programme in collaboration with the John Kuffour Foundation, to identify the key challenges to achieving zero hunger in countries where it operates through an independent, analytical and consultative exercise. Although Ghana has already achieved the significant United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 1 of cutting in half the poverty and hunger within its borders in 2017, it is still faced with the problem of malnutrition in parts of its northern region and rural areas. The report seeks to take it a step further by tackling the problem and eradicating it completely, thereby achieving SDG 2.
