Updated WHO acute malnutrition policies include the first-ever guidelines for managing care for at risk infants and millions of moderately malnourished children
Conflict and violence threatens food security for 85% of 258 million people in 58 countries, according to a new Action Against Hunger report, “No Matter Who’s Fighting, Hunger Always Wins."
Nearly 258 million people in 58 countries are facing acute food insecurity, a figure that has grown by 65 million people since last year. Action Against Hunger calls on the global community to take immediate action.
According to a new report from Action Against Hunger, fewer than 30% of appeals for humanitarian support for water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) related programs were met in 2022, leaving an average funding gap of 70.3%.
Action Against Hunger, a leader in finding sustainable solutions to global hunger, will have a key presence throughout this year’s African Union conference.
The International Rescue Committee, World Vision International, and Action Against Hunger are calling for urgent reforms to the international community’s response to famine prevention as nearly one million people are projected to face famine conditions.
