Why We Do What We Do

Global hunger increased in 2020 by 25 per cent, reversing decades of decline. This was the combined impact of various conflicts, climate change, and the COVID-19 pandemic. As of April 2022, the World Food Programme now estimates that nearly half of all deaths among children under five are caused by hunger.

"A global crisis of epic proportions has arisen from a deadly cocktail of COVID-19, conflict and climate change — pushing 45 million people in 43 countries to the edge of starvation without urgent life-saving assistance," says Michael Messenger, President and CEO of World Vision Canada.
"This number is projected to jump to 49 million by September. We must respond and we must sound an alarm loudly."
