Hunger persists in the 21st century

Posted in 04/04/2019

One of the most basic and important problems to be solved by humanity is to satisfy hunger.

The report presented by the European Union's Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) and World Food Program (WFP) concluded that around 113 million people in 53 countries were acutely food insecure in 2018, compared to 124 million in 2017.

The document emphasizes the need to strengthen cooperation between humanitarian, development and peace actors to reverse and prevent food crises. A strong and cohesive global network can help achieve change for the people who really need it.
