Take action to fight world hunger  

              
            This is an emergency. 49 million people around the world are at risk of famine, driven by the war in Ukraine, soaring food prices, climate shocks and the covid pandemic.

            The global food crisis could claim millions of lives and have a devastating impact on the world's most vulnerable populations. But this is not inevitable.

            Add your voice to our petition urging world leaders to end the hunger crisis by fully funding humanitarian appeals and investing in fair and sustainable global food production.

            Today marks Nelson Mandela’s 104th birthday, one of the most important figures of the fight for freedom, justice and dignity. This Mandela Day, people all over the world are celebrating his legacy by shining a light on the issue of food security and demanding urgent action.

            The hunger crisis is high up on the agenda of our leaders right now, so it’s crucial that we keep up the pressure to get them to act. Vladimir, will you add your name to our petition now?

            Here’s what the petition says:

                  Dear world leaders,

                  Urgent action is needed to stop the global hunger crisis. Please fund immediate humanitarian aid for people at risk of famine, starvation and severe malnutrition. Ensure access, trade and flow of food and critical inputs like fertiliser is fair and free. Make investments to scale up food production in vulnerable countries and adapt to climate change.
                 

            In the wake of the unprovoked attack on Ukraine, food prices are skyrocketing. Recent droughts in North and East Africa and a heatwave in India, are also impacting food prices. Additionally, poor harvests and regional conflicts played a role in making 2022 a bad year for food.

            Nelson Mandela once said that “freedom is meaningless if people cannot put food in their stomachs”. Let’s make sure we live up to what he stood for. Together, we can not only stop today’s hunger crisis, but also prevent future ones by tackling the root causes of food insecurity.
