Aisling Gallagher, of relief organisation SCIAF, said she'd seen field after field of dead crops and spoken to starving families.
A Scots aid worker has told how she broke down in tears after witnessing first-hand the hunger emergency in Zambia linked to climate change .
As soon as she got off the plane, she saw a queue of 200 people at the supermarket, with bags of maize being limited per person, with people running around the shop in panic. She arrived in Mongu simply expecting to meet people involved in SCIAF’s local emergency relief project there, but around 500 people in the community came out.“Some people were saying ‘thank you, this has been so helpful to us but we need more’, and other people were turning up and saying ‘I have had very little to eat over the last few months and how am I supposed to survive?’”
Kashueka, who has four young kids, did receive some emergency aid in early 2024 but it only lasted three months. She said: “I don’t know how I will feed my children.” “But he kept talking and he held my hand and then he just started shouting and that was really difficult.
