🌾 Historic Rice Harvest in Sierra Leone: UN Women Empowers Female Farmers!

Watch how women and youth in Mabunduka, Sierra Leone, are transforming local agriculture and taking charge of their economic future! In this video, go behind the scenes of a highly symbolic rice harvest. Through the Women Economic Empowerment Project, UN Women Sierra Leone and Mabunduka Agro Farmers have supported local communities to cultivate 56 hectares of farmland, marking the historic return of rice production to this area after more than 30 years. This initiative proudly contributes to the national "Feed Salone" Agenda for food security. More than just producing food, this project is about putting women at the forefront of agricultural leadership and driving sustainable change.
