Happy World Food Day

On 11th October 2025, I volunteered in data collection on an ongoing study- "contribution of Social Cash Transfer (SCT) to household food security and its pillars, as well as dietary diversity, targeting 320 beneficiaries in SG Chimutu, Mkwinda EPA, Lilongwe West using Kobo Collect".

Honored to have completed the 2025 Aspire Leaders Program, a transformative journey that sharpened my critical thinking, communication, and leadership skills. Over 40 hours of coursework, I connected with a global community of changemakers and deepened my commitment to creating social impact.

This #WorldFoodDay marks @FAO.org's 80th anniversary.
