It is easy to think that hunger is simply a lack of food. However, apart from food insufficiency, hunger also occurs when people have difficulty accessing food. If the price of food surges due to sudden changes in policy, conflicts, cornering and hoarding, and food outflowing to other regions, vulnerable people are the first victim in a hunger crisis.
Following food accessibility, another causing factor to hunger is malnutrition. Long-term nutritional deficiency interferes with child development and prevents normal growth.
We must strive to free people from hunger. First, we will strengthen individual and community responsiveness to food insecurity. We will build an organized response system for communities by raising people’s understanding of food security and strengthening the need for food security preparedness. We will also introduce sustainable production methods to communities to ensure a stable supply of food and prevent interruptions from climate change and its effects.
