Ghana: Devastating Effects of Climate Change On Women Farmers in Northern Ghana

It’s 2:13 p.m. in Mawodoo, a quiet farming village in the Kpandai District of northern Ghana. Under the dense shade of a mango tree, a group of women sit chatting, braiding hair, and lying on straw mats to escape the blistering afternoon heat.

Children run barefoot across the sun-scorched earth, chasing chickens and spinning makeshift toys from tins and sticks. But beneath the seemingly calm rhythm of village life lies a deeper struggle–one carved into the cracked ground and parched fields.
