The Hunger Project has been working in Ghana since 1995 and is empowering 250,000 partners in 40 epicentre communities to end their own hunger and poverty. Through its integrated approach to rural development, the Epicentre Strategy, The Hunger Project is working with partners to successfully access the basic services needed to achieve the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and lead lives of self-reliance.
Ghana is the first country in which The Hunger Project is scaling up its Epicentre Strategy to provide coverage to a set geographical area and reach significantly more people. In July 2006, The Hunger Project received a US$5 million investment to scale-up Hunger Project work in the Eastern Region of Ghana. By the end of the five-year commitment, The Hunger Project-Ghana will have mobilised enough epicentre communities so that each villager in the Eastern Region is within walking distance to an epicentre building.
