“I have noticed that women in our village have been invisible. We were either working inside the house, or outside the village, in the fields. Now that we have our own garden and animals to take care of, which, by the way, women are much better at than men, we take charge of our lives outside of our homes." - Moud Noumsajkhong.

Would you have guessed that, with a simple meal, we can help to empower women and improve the living standards of entire communities? Our global partner, the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP), is proving this to be possible!

This is even more crucial for girls, who are more likely to be taken out of school when families lack financial resources.

Stop Hunger and Sodexo continue to mobilise in order to support the dire humanitarian situation in Ukraine. The latest figures from the United Nations indicate that 12 million people are in need of emergency assistance. This figure includes 7.1 million internally displaced people and 4.9 million people who have crossed borders into neighbouring countries.

Tonight, Thursday 10 March, during our Supporters Evening, we announced the laureates of the 2022 Stop Hunger Awards. The Awards are presented each year to outstanding individuals who play a key role in women's empowerment projects. The winners lead projects in 4 continents, from Nepal, Haiti, Congo and France.

Volunteers play an important role in the work we do at Stop Hunger. That’s why each year we pay homage to colleagues from our founding partner, Sodexo, who are setting an example of what can be achieved through volunteering actions.
