Women for Zero Hunger 2023 Prize of €5,000

For the Women for Zero Hunger Programme 2023, applications are being accepted. Together, Stop Hunger and Women in Africa launched the Women for Zero Hunger prize program to support organizations working to end hunger and food insecurity in Africa because they believe in the ability and tenacity of women to help the most vulnerable communities escape hunger.

Women In Africa (WIA), which was established in 2016, is the first international platform devoted to the promotion of African women entrepreneurs and their economic development. At WIA, they are believed that Pan-African women significantly contribute to the change and impact they bring to the development of the continent through their acts.

The sole charitable endeavor of Sodexo is Stop Hunger, which promotes a world without hunger. The movement was started in 1996 by Sodexo associates in the United States. Since then, it has expanded internationally, today existing in 60 nations and collaborating with more than 300 NGOs.
