No joy for internally displaced communities as Africa celebrates the Day of Food and Nutrition Security.

While NGOs, donors, and well-wishers have tried to bridge the gap, the government is encouraged to allocate funds towards social security so that the dignity of internally displaced people can be preserved especially in times of distress.

Women, children, and youths are currently dominating the statistics of the most food insecure in Zimbabwean communities, as shown in the World Food Program reports, and the government should be proactive in gender mainstreaming and youth inclusion in its development plans to eradicate poverty and hunger.
