WHAT IS CHRONIC HUNGER?

CHRONIC HUNGER IS MORE THAN A PANG IN YOUR STOMACH THAT

TELLS YOU ITS TIME TO EAT.

CHRONIC HUNGER IS WHEN PEOPLE LACK ACCESS TO

ENOUGH SAFE AND NUTRITIOUS FOOD FOR NORMAL GROWTH AND

DEVELOPMENT.

CHRONIC HUNGER MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO STUDY OR WORK AND MAKES PEOPLE

VULNERABLE TO DISEASE AND INFECTION BY WEAKENING THEIR IMMUNE SYSTEM.

CHRONIC HUNGER IS NOT CAUSED BY A LACK OF FOOD-

THERE IS ENOUGH FOOD PRODUCED IN THE WORLD TODAY FOR EVERY PERSON TO BE WELL NOURISHED.

CHRONIC HUNGER EXSISTS BECAUSE OF CONFLICT, WAR, NATURAL DISASTERS, ECONOMIC CRISES BUT MOST OF ALL, BECAUSE OF THE CYCLE OF POVERTY.

CHRONIC HUNGER IS A CONDITION FACED 926 MILLION PEOPLE

AROUND THE WORLD- THIS IS 42 TIMES MORE THAN THE NUMBER OF

PEOPLE LIVING WITH HIV/AIDS.

CHRONIC HUNGER AFFECTS 239 MILLION PEOPLE IN

SUB-SAHARAN AFRICA.

CHRONIC HUNGER AFFECTS 578 MILLION PEOPLE IN ASIA AND THE PACIFIC- OVER

TWICE AS MANY PEOPLE THAN IN AFRICA- IT IS ALL AROUND US.

CHRONIC HUNGER IS THE MOST COMMON AMONGST WIDOWS,

ORPHANS, THE ELDERLY, LABORERS AND REFUGEES.
