🌍 Global hunger is rising — again. For the sixth year in a row, the 2025 Global Report on Food Crises shows a heartbreaking truth: more people are going hungry every year. And yet, funding is falling. As needs grow, humanitarian aid is shrinking, and political will is fading. ❗ This must change. Extreme weather events, economic shocks, and conflict are making 2025 look even more dangerous for vulnerable communities. The world cannot look away. 🔗 Learn more: https://actionagainsthunger.ca/story/global-hunger-rate-reaches-high/ (fb)
👋 Meet Veronica Lalakal—a Community Health Worker in one of Kenya’s most remote regions. She treks 3 hours almost every day, crossing rivers, braving unpaved roads, and navigating washed-out paths during floods, to reach families in need. In hard-to-reach communities like Oldonyiro, where rates of malnutrition are alarmingly high, Veronica is a lifeline for children. On a recent visit, she met 2-year-old Enza. Using a simple MUAC band, Veronica identified signs of severe acute malnutrition and immediately brought Enza and her mother to a local health center for treatment.
