World food security facts



I was searching some information on World Food Programme website and suddenly a quiz bar popped up and some questions regarding food security were asked. I answered all the questions correctly, the result is below. The information can be very useful for you. Please read all:
 

  • Asia and the Pacific is first place in the world in terms of having more hungry people, it is home to 578 million of the world’s hungry, compared to 239 million in Sub-Saharan Africa and 53 million in Latin America and the Caribbean.
  • Hunger kills more people every year than AIDS, malaria, and tuberculosis combined.
  • It takes only $0.25 for the World Food Programme to give a hungry schoolchild a cup of nutritious food. $50 will feed a child at school for an entire year.
  • The number of malnourished people worldwide is just under 1 billion people – nearly a seventh of the global population.
  • There is enough food today for everyone to have the nourishment needed for a healthy and productive life. The problem is access.
