The West African nation of Benin has experienced one of the most stable democracies in all of Africa. Despite this and recent economic growth, Benin remains one of the poorest nations in Africa and the world. The Hunger Project has been working in Benin since 1997 and is currently empowering over 31,000 partners in 12 epicenter communities to end their own hunger and poverty.
At the Wawata Epicenter, all fish farms have been well maintained and equipped as The Hunger Project-Benin managed to find a consultant who has helped to develop the fisheries.
In September 2007, Dr. Fitigu Tadesse, Vice President, Africa Region, and Amrote Abdella visit The Hunger Project-Benin where they work closely with Monsieur Pascal and the team on the ground.
