INTERNATIONAL DAY OF RURAL WOMEN

International Day of Rural Women

As part of the International Day of Rural Women 2023, under the theme “rural women confront the global cost of living crises”.

The team from HELP FOUNDATION AFRICA and Nsemkafo Consult with media coverage by Nsemkafo TV visited the communities that have been affected by the Akosombo dam spill.
We have dedicated this week of the month of October to tell the story of Rural Women affected by flooding from the Akosombo Dam spilling.

Our engagement with the communities enlightened us on the magnitude of the damages caused by this spill. More especially, the impact on women and the livelihood and properties of these communities are in disarray.

We call on all stakeholders to take swift and concrete actions to provide immediate support to affected communities and work together to prevent future occurrences.
