One Billion Hungry Campaign Hunger exists because of poverty. Hunger exists because of conflict, natural disasters and financial and economic crises. Sharing a vision of a world without hunger is the first step. The public and private sectors need to work together to end poverty and inequality and improve access to safe food for all. Get involved by signing this petition to pressure politicians to end hunger!
