Ending hunger
starts with people.
See how we are actively responding to COVID-19.
The Hunger Project
breaks the cycle of poverty.
People living in hunger are themselves the key to ending hunger. In partnership, we work with community members to realize their vision, commitment and leadership so they can feed themselves and their families, and end hunger for good in their communities.
Women are often
most affected.
Ending hunger starts when
people are empowered.
690 million people do not have enough to eat. Through a women-centred and community-led approach, The Hunger Project works to end extreme hunger and poverty by 2030, in line with the Sustainable Development Goals.
