   From Spice Island to Zero Hunger: Grenada's Fight for Food Security

   Can a small island fight hunger and win? Grenada, the Spice Island of the Caribbean, is proving that determined leadership and community action can move a nation closer to food security. In this episode of the Zero Hunger Project, Sen. The Hon. Gloria Thomas, Minister for Social and Community Development, Housing, and Gender Affairs in Grenada, explains the realities small island nations face like heavy food import dependence, climate shocks, and persistent poverty. Grenada imports about 60 to 80 percent of its food, making it highly vulnerable to global supply disruptions and rising prices. Sen. Gloria outlines how the country is responding through stronger agriculture programs, climate‑smart farming, livestock breeding, and support for local farmers while also addressing gender inequality that limits economic opportunity for women. By investing in skills training, education for young girls, and community partnerships, Grenada is strengthening both livelihoods and food security. Spend a few minutes with this episode of From Spice Island to Zero Hunger: Grenada's Fight for Food Security to see how a small island is shaping big ideas for the future of food security. Senator the Honorable Gloria Ann Thomas is Grenada's Minister for Social and Community Development, Housing and Gender Affairs and a veteran social worker with more than 45 years of public service. Widely respected for her leadership in social protection and gender equality, she has championed policies that strengthen community support systems and protect vulnerable populations. Her work has advanced programs focused on equity, dignity, and empowerment across Grenada, Carriacou, and Petite Martinique. With a background in social work, counseling psychology, and project management, Senator Thomas has shaped initiatives addressing gender-based violence, community development, and inclusive social policy. Appointed to the Senate in 2022, she continues to advocate for people-centered development and stronger systems that help communities thrive.
