783 million people around the world will not have a meal today.
Help families facing severe hunger
Today alone, millions of struggling families do not know where their next meal will come from – or if any food will come at all.
Right now, the world is experiencing a distressing surge in hunger. Today alone, millions of struggling families do not know where their next meal will come from – or if any food will come at all.
According to the U.N., hunger is currently the leading cause of death in the world. And while the world’s farmers should be able to grow enough food to feed everyone on the planet, the overlapping crises of conflict, climate change and economic inequality have created a cycle that has undermined food security worldwide.
Even here in the UK, we’ve experienced some of these felt effects of conflict as war in Ukraine has triggered a global increase in food and fuel prices.
Imagine, the pains of inflation we feel at home magnified in places like Malawi where inflation has reached 26.6% – more than double the 10.5% increase we’ve experienced in our own cost-of-living crisis. Though these challenges stacked upon challenges can seem insurmountable, I truly believe that ending hunger in our lifetime is not only attainable, but what we are called to do – together.
