TOP PICK: The Wright Idea

ACTRESS Bonnie Wright recently travelled to Senegal with Oxfam to help raise awareness of the country's current food crisis. Here, she shares her experience of a very memorable trip.

"My trip to Senegal with Oxfam last month was a truly eye-opening and inspiring journey. As part of the global Sahel food crisis appeal, I travelled to the remote region of Kedougou -an area deeply suffering from food shortages and unstable crop growth."

"Over two days we travelled to four different villages to talk to malnourished families about their situation. Whilst I was aware statistically of the conditions, nothing could prepare me for actually meeting women of my own age with three children - who each and every day wake up with the anxiety of finding food to survive."

"The families that I spoke to have almost nothing. Their last harvest cultivated zero produce and they are just able to eat one meal a day. On average, two out of six children in a family were at school and yet their faith and drive toward a better future for their children was astounding."

"The people that I met had an infectious grace about the way they discussed life. They believed that the only way to break this cycle of poverty for their children was by empowering them with an education and by developing their farming methods. Some of the families had been receiving the aid cash transfers from Oxfam, which had been successfully stabilising their situation and through this appeal hopefully more can be reached."

"In the depths of their poverty there was a love and solidarity within each community that was the lifeline to their survival. I am determined to be part of the generation that ensures an end to poverty. These peoples' voices must be heard."
