This episode of "Journey to Zero Hunger" reveals the transformative journeys of two outstanding women who are breaking barriers and charting new courses in the fight against global hunger. First, host C.D. Glin speaks with Chef Sahar Parham Al Awadhi, one of the first female pastry chefs in the United Arab Emirates, who defied cultural norms to pursue her passion.

In her current role as Chancellor of the University of Johannesburg, Dr. Mlambo-Ngcuka discusses empowering students to meet the looming challenge of an aging agricultural workforce. Listen as we explore what it means to be a 21st century food trailblazer on the Journey to Zero Hunger.
