WORLD HUNGER

‘IF YOU CAN’T FEED A HUNDRED PEOPLE,THEN JUST FEED ONE’ Mother Teresa

WHAT IS HUNGER?HUNGER is the feeling of discomfort and/or weakness caused by lack of food, coupled with the desire to eat

THE CAUSES OF HUNGERPoverty. Natural disasters (floods, droughts)Weak agriculture and infrastructure. War(displaced people, food used as the weapon, farm and wells mined)

DID YOU KNOW?11.3% of the world’s population is hungry; Nearly 98% of worldwide hunger exists in underdeveloped countries;We began 2022 with 828 million hungry people in the world;Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, the number of hungry people in the world has increased to 150 million; 7 Countries ( India, Pakistan, China, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Congo, Ethiopia) constitute 2/ 3r of the world's hungry population; Every 5 seconds, a child dies from hunger related diseases;9 million people die from hunger every year;World Hunger Day is celebrated on 28th May

WHAT WILL SOLVING WORLD HUNGER DO?Only if we work together world hunger can be stopped. It will help families and children fighting starvation;It can reduce the amount of food thrown out that could be given to people in need;Help assist people who are unable to afford food.

PROVIDING FOR PEOPLE WITH LOW INCOMEPoor people in developing countries spend between 50% and 80% of their incomes on food;Low income leads to no food which leads to poorer health;By helping those in need, we will create happier and healthier future.

WHAT CAN WE DO TO HELP?There are many non-profit organizations which support the fight against hunger;Food and money can be donated to these organizations to support the cause;Feeding America, Revolution Hunger and Stop Hunger Now are just a few of many organizations that can be donated to.

INDIVIDUAL ACTIONSIndividuals can donate unused and unwanted food to their local food pantries;The smallest donations can make a big difference;Supporting hungry people in your community is the first step to ending world hunger;Volunteer in organizations that work to reduce poverty and hunger.

CONCLUSIONIn my opinion, poverty is the main reason for hunger. In developing countries governments can’t afford to support those in need for food and water and in developed countries there are some individuals who can’t afford their need due to lack of education which caused them to be unable to look for a source of income. Natural disasters can cause poverty too. Governments should be able to provide shelter and food for those people whose houses and belongings were destroyed by natural disasters.
