Global food crisis: EU allocates EUR10m to Ghana (Class FM Online) 

October 15, 2022


Class FM Online published an article about how the EU is helping Ghana deal with the food crisis in the country. According to a recent IFPRI study (Ghana: Impacts of the Ukraine and global crises on poverty and food security), the global food, fuel, and fertilizer crisis linked to Russia’s aggression against Ukraine has caused GDP and employment in Ghana to contract. The European Union (EU) has pledged an additional EUR 10 million to Ghana to support “the most vulnerable populations” facing an escalating global food security crisis exacerbated by Russia’s unprovoked and unjustified invasion of Ukraine.
