and Goba Town Action Women Group Farm.

Furthermore, as part of the celebration of World Food Day on October 16th under the theme “Right to Food for Life and a Better Future,” the FJN outreach team urging churches to participate in the Anti-Hunger Advocate in the Mano River Basin by showing solidarity and standing in solidarity with small-scale farmers in the efforts to feed the local communities.

Every year, on the 16th of October, people around the world come together to celebrate World Food Day. A global event such as this serves as a powerful reminder of how essential food is to the quality of our lives. Having a reliable source of food is not only a fundamental human right, but it is also an important element of cultural identity and a source of sustenance.
