Community Conversations during Nepal Food Security Learning Tour Credit: CFGB

The United Church of Canada is seeking individuals interested in applying for a Canadian Foodgrains Bank Food Security Learning Tour to learn about hunger, food security, community perspectives, histories, and lived experiences in Bangladesh from January 27 to February 10, 2027.

The United Church of Canada is a member of the Canadian Foodgrains Bank (CFGB).

Food Security Learning Tours are opportunities to see firsthand how CFGB supports projects promoting food security for families and communities, as well as learn more about Canada’s global role supporting agricultural and food security. This learning tour is for any Canadian adults (20+) who are passionate to learn more about global food security and humanitarian response and be equipped with knowledge and skills to share with others and inspire them to take action.

Goals of CFGB Food Security Learning Tours

  • To facilitate learning about global hunger and food security, and equip participants to share that learning with other Canadians;
  • To promote solidarity by providing opportunities for meaningful connection of tour participants, Canadian Foodgrains Bank members and their partners, and those affected by hunger;
  • To encourage learning tour participants to get involved in Canadian Foodgrains Bank public engagement and advocacy initiatives to end global hunger.

Cost: The advertised cost for the trip is approximately $4,500.

Cost includes in-country costs, airfare, visas, accommodation, and all other expenses EXCEPT travel health consult, vaccinations, incidental costs and meals during international air travel, and any personal gifts. Partial subsidies may be available to United Church members who apply. A $2000 deposit will be required by CFGB to secure a spot once the application is approved. Please indicate your financial need in the online application. If accepted, we will be in touch regarding the amount of subsidy.

Applicant Profile (to be eligible for a subsidy)

  • Have a valid passport that does not expire before end of July 2027
  • Have a demonstrated commitment to, and engagement in, The United Church of Canada (locally, regionally and/or nationally)
  • Willingness to be part of networks of education and faithful advocacy to offer leadership to others within the United Church on issues of hunger, food security and food sovereignty
  • Willingness to speak to United Church groups about the experience and its impact on their faith journey
  • Willingness to participate in advocacy initiatives and community awareness building on food security issues

    Outcomes
    Written piece (about 400 words) summarizing the experience, with 5 high-resolution pictures
    Speaking engagements to United Church communities of faith about the experience
    Ongoing engagement in advocacy

To Express Interest

The application can be found on the CFGB website. Please apply directly to the Canadian Foodgrains Bank by August 31, 2027 using the online form on the CFGB website(opens in a new tab) with as much detail as possible.

Please alert the United Church that you have applied in an email to pip@united-church.ca . In doing so, you are granting permission for The United Church of Canada to discuss your application, any subsidy arrangements and your participation (if accepted) in the CFGB from selection to re-entry and follow up
