The African Christian Democratic Party said thinking out of the box is necessary to ensure sustainable projects for food security. 

According to a study done by the Human Sciences Research Council last year, it revealed that more than half of South Africans do not have regular access to enough food. 

ACDP MP Cheryllyn Dudley said a novel idea that I’ve seen very recently is the Miss Uganda competition has actually been turned into something that promotes agriculture particularly amongst the youth.

Dudley said now whether or not this particular idea would work in South Africa or not I don’t know, if I’m anything to go on id not be too hopeful.

“But it is a great example of thinking out of the box and for that I salute Uganda and the amazing young women pioneering this new kind of pageant putting the needs of their country first Dudley added.
