The annual celebration recognizes the invaluable role rural women play in enhancing agricultural and rural development, improving food security and eradicating rural poverty. As part of this year’s celebration, (USAID) through Sustainable Fisheries Management Project brought together stakeholders under the theme “Sea and Land Galamsey: The Impact on Food Security.” The objective was to highlight some of the negative effects of galamsey (or illegal mining) on the sea and on land, as well as encourage women and girls to become change agents in the fight against unsustainable practices in the fisheries sector. The event brought together over 300 rural women from different parts of Ghana, 30 dignitaries including the District Chief Executive of Gomoa West and the Chief of Mumford. The invited guest addressed the audience on the theme with a call to government to stop illegal practices on the sea.
