there is a hero.
of rural women and men of Africa into #FoodHeroes!
The world’s 510 MILLION smallholder-farming families produce about 35% of our food and yet they are among the poorest people in the planet.
In occasion of the #WorldFoodDay and the International #RuralWomenDay, the Platform for Agricultural Risk Management (PARM) together with its partners want to celebrate rural women and men that everyday face many risks to produce the food we eat in our plates.
The PARM Art Challenge aims at raising awareness on the urgency to strengthen farmers‘resilience to adapt to risks in agriculture and build sustainable agri-food systems.
The Platform for Agricultural Risk Management (PARM) is the global partnership on agricultural risk management (ARM) for development. Established in 2013 as an outcome of G20 discussions the Platform has the mandate to promote sustainable agricultural growth, boost rural investment, reduce food insecurity, and improve resilience to climate and market shocks of poor rural households through a better management of risks.

Find below the selection of portraits of rural women and men we met during our visits in Ethiopia, Niger, Uganda and Senegal.
Help us turn our farmers into food heroes! You have four weeks to pick 1 or more photos to participate in the challenge and transform them into digital art!
The more Food Heroes you create the more chances you have to be selected and have your artwork exhibited at the Dak’Art, la Biennale de Dakar in May 2022!
