The Food Discourse

Connecting voices 🎙️ for a sustainable food future 💚

[The Food Discourse @FoodDiscourse]

In 2024, 4000+ people joined us on X to talk #foodsystems, #climatejustice, and the politics of what we eat. Hosted by @agyareagloria.
We took those conversations off-screen, to farms, communities,and frontlines. Now, @FoodDiscourse is back here with the stories and lots to show

[Right Cohen @RightCohen]

Agriculture should be a compulsory subject at all levels of education.

Do you agree?

[The Food Discourse @FoodDiscourse]

Earlier this year, The @FoodDiscourse was invited to join @IOMGhana training for Local Stakeholders in #Ghana under the Diaspora for #Climateaction and #FoodSecurity.

We were represented by @AgyareAGloria who shared relevant insights about the work we do to drive action.

No irrigation, No fertiliser. Just soil that refuses to be barren.
We talk about food insecurity in #Africa like the land is the problem. It never was.
🌿 The Food Discourse, telling the stories the food system forgets.

Earlier this month, we were invited to the National Youth Dialogue in Accra, hosted by @AGRA_Africa.

During the 3-day event, we didn’t only celebrate Agripreneurs but we also encouraged them to tell their stories differently to attract the right support.

Ghanaian food discourse gets wild, but we’re putting some respect back on these classic staples. 🇬🇭✨

[The Ghanaian Farmer @EnyonamManye]

Government officially lifts restrictions on egg exports to Burkina Faso and tomato imports to boost bilateral trade...

[The Food Discourse @FoodDiscourse]

@EnyonamManye quite a tough decision to make, but seeing you on that tractor means mechanization could be the way, but I'll go with access to finance 😄

[The Ghanaian Farmer @EnyonamManye]

AGRIBUSINESS:

The generous support from the EEZZY Group Foundation demonstrates that when Government and the private sector work together, we can give our farmers the recognition they deserve while building a stronger, more resilient agricultural economy for Ghana.” - Eric Opoku, Minister for Food and Agriculture

🌾 Did you know that women farmers do much more than grow our food?

💼 They create jobs, strengthen rural economies and help communities thrive.

🌱 They are essential to building more efficient, more inclusive, more resilient and more sustainable agrifood systems.

⚠️ Yet many women farmers still face barriers to land, finance, technology and other resources they need to succeed.

💚 The International Year of the Woman Farmer 2026 is a call to recognize their contributions and take action to support women farmers.
