Helping to solve the food crisis.

Ending hunger & food insecurity.

Food shortage and hunger is increasing annually. It is a global problem caused by land rights issues, pollution and climate change, food waste, war and politics, seed sovereignty, and social inequalities. Now with the COVID-19 pandemic, the world is facing even more problems with hunger access to nutritional food sources.

EDFU Foundation is actively working on helping solve the food crisis in all forms. We are working with individuals and groups around the world to bring awareness to the global food crisis and hunger issues.

Food Sovereignty Between Power & Politics

A CSW66 parallel event.

EDFU Foundation held a virtual event during the Commission on the Status of Women's 66th session that focused on Food Sovereignty; the power it has; and the role that politics play in it. Our guests came from different parts of the world - Africa, Europe, and North America. Together, we presented a solution-based discussion to educate, heal, and alert everyone about the problems the world is facing withing Food Sovereignty.
