CRAVING CONNECTION, GOOD FOOD AND COMMUNITY? YOU HAVE COME TO THE RIGHT PLACE.

OUR NETWORK

CONNECTING AND SUPPORTING THE FOOD AND AGRIC COMMUNITY IN GHANA AND ULTIMATELY AFRICA

We connect.

We are the Ghana Food Movement, a network of young chefs, farmers, food producers, scientists, entrepreneurs, nutritionists, students and other food experts working together to tackle big problems in Ghana's food system.

 

The current system effects our local food security as it favours imported unhealthy goods, which undermines local farmers, processors and food brands. Youth unemployment rates are very high and local companies struggle to find skilled staff.

International driven agricultural policies and the shift to a Western and processed diet threatens Ghana's health and culture. Our ecosystems and biodiversity are under pressure and effects of climate change and food insecurity are present.


Since we started in 2019 we've partnered with local and global organisations to address Ghana’s challenges. We've organised over 100 events and programs to inspire, connect and support Ghanaians in building a sustainable local food industry.

Through our events we celebrate, preserve and redefine our Ghanaian food culture! Join a Food Safari, chop at Dine and Dance, discuss and learn at Movers Connect or join one of our many other events all diving into West African food culture.

THE KITCHEN

We build.

We’re launching THE KITCHEN, an all-round food education hub in West Africa, September 2024. We believe this is the missing link to solving Ghana’s major food challenges, all under one roof.

 

THE KITCHEN will be a breeding ground for the next generations of change makers in food and agric in Ghana and West Africa. We train, equip and support them to build a career in food. From gastronomy, product development, hospitality, to farming and marketing of local climate resilient crops!

 

The Hub includes a fully equipped kitchen, lab, dining, and co-working space. It will be the beating heart for the food community, serving as a meet-up, learn, co- work and event space.

We have received funding to finish the construction of the building but we need another 100K Euros/ 1,408,500 GHC to fully equip the building and start operations. We are therefore launching a global crowdfunding campaign, which you can support here.
