World Hunger Day
May 28
It’s World Hunger Day on 28th May.
Around the world, women and children are facing #Malnutrition due to war, famine, climate change and more. Over 1 billion adolescent girls and women suffer from malnutrition today. The effects are passed down from mother to child. Malnourished mothers give birth to malnourished babies. These children suffer irreversible impacts on their brain development and futures.
It creates a cycle of chronic hunger.
The challenge extends well beyond conflict zones. Every country in the world is affected by malnutrition. It has developmental, economic, social and medical impacts for individuals and their families, for communities and for countries.
This World Hunger Day, we’re shining a light on nutrition for new and expecting mothers. By investing in women, we can break the cycle of hunger and create a world where we all thrive.
