- More people are hungry than ever before, and the UN warns the numbers are increasing
The UN's latest report on global hunger shows we are moving backwards.
At least 828 million people went hungry one way or another, on a daily basis, last year.
War, natural disasters and rising temperatures are threatening food security.
The prices of wheat and other crops have increased exponentially - and will continue to do so.
Billions of dollars are needed to prevent a global food crisis.
What can we do before it's too late?

In Africa, the problem is most people do not know how to rotate crops and protect the soil. Overgrazing is a massive problem. Equals soil erosion...
Wars and corruption have a big effect on food distribution. A lot of associations dig wells for these people but nobody repairs them. The money for the repairs is diverted elsewhere ☹️
So they can't get their own water and they can't fix what they have? All we have to do is keep throwing money at them and everything will be great. How much are you sending?
@@woodspirit98 that's the whole point. Why can't they dig their own wells or repair the ones they have ? But if you wait too long and the people become too ill and weak to help themselves you have to help them. I think éducation is the answer but then again if you are dying of thirst and hunger you really can't think about éducation
You're absolutely right🤔
45 million children are wasting away? In the USA, we have actual caves full of 1.4 billion pounds of excess cheese. We’re dumping milk into fields because we have so much extra. Please, let’s get some of these dairy products sent to feed these children immediately. Young children can digest lactose, so lactose intolerance won’t be a problem. If these children stay malnourished, they can develop long term health problems and mental deficits even if they survive. Every moment lost in getting food to these children is reducing humanity’s future potential and increasing our future disease burden.
Sending even a quarter pound of cheese per child could help get these children the micronutrients they need for proper brain and body development if they could get enough other calories to survive from cheap carbohydrates.
No money in that, that's why it doesn't happen
The reason there are 45 million kids is because of foreing imports. Unless they stop the baby making handing out More food will Make everything worse.
We need to thank world economic forum for the problems !

The world is not on track to achieve Zero Hunger by 2030. If recent trends continue, the number of people affected by hunger would surpass 840 million by 2030. According to the World Food Programme, 135 million suffer from acute hunger largely due to man-made conflicts, climate change and economic downturns.

Food security exists when all people, at all times, have physical, social and economic access to sufficient, safe and nutritious food that meets their dietary needs and food preferences for an active and healthy life. The four pillars of food security are availability, access, utilization and stability.

As a farmer I can tell you we are not paid well. According to the commodities system it really does not matter if we actually receive a profit. Imagine bankrupting the people whom everybodies survival depends. Consider that logic.
Middle men become wealthy taking huge profits with no concern that the producer can actually continue working.
It would seem rational that all societies would most want to be concerned about the viability of it's farmers, rather then saying 'o well that's capitalism '
In which case you all starve and farmers can say ' o well that's capitalism'
Farmers are above politicians and up there with the doctors. Farmers are indispensable. Without Farmers, there is no life.
The production of food has been given over to the rich and families who are interested in producing their own food can no longer afford the price of land. One thing that wasn't mentioned is deforestation. There would be less drought, regardless of climate change, if large tracts of land were not cleared of trees. Now, the topsoil is blown away and dried, making moist, rich productive soil a thing of the past. This is most apparent in Africa, and there isn't even shade for protection against the summer heat. There are few people in government who can empathize nor understand ordinary people. 😭
Government workers ARE 🙄 people ALSO.
It's just that the ratio of those workers to others is overwhelming. Those wanting to help...limited resources to do so. Remember that redirected resources DO RUN OUT. It's passed out in a calculated and measured way to SAVE THE MOST LIVES possible 🙏.
Umm most of africa is desert. Of course there isn't shade or good soil. Or good water or roads and infrastructure or raw materials. I don't know any rich landlords there that have been given land.
In Ethiopia the gouvernement wanted to plant a million trees. But now there is civil war I assume that idea will fall through ☹️

Stop having babies when you can’t even feed yourselves.
It's Not That Just Think About it Like This The Logics How Can U Have Babies if you not getting the proper nutritions you won't be able to reproduce if your not getting the proper food . Basically what I'm saying it's just not adding up u can't tell me your starving when you can be able to produce kids 🤔🧐Think about it it's a scam lol

@@patriciavandevelde5469 no, they will migrate to western countries as refugees so we can put them on welfare and continue to feed them and allow them to have even more babies.
100%correct
It's because their religion doesn't allow contraception.
The countries with the greatest food shortages resist family planning the most.
And the countries that export the most food, like Ukraine, have the fewest children.
So the problem will get a whole lot worst.
There's a reason for that. If you're poor you need lots of children to work the fields. Lots of them die young or of other diseases and starvation. So they have to have many children. In developed countries they have fewer kids because 1. They're expensive and 2. There is better health, cleaner water, more food. So kids live longer.
@@woodspirit98 The farmer's fields of Egypt, Nigeria and Pakistan get smaller and smaller each passing year.
Nope it’s Europeans and American taking more than they need you guys Take all the resources then point fingers these country have farms and animals
I've noticed that.
So the question is ; can everybody be saved?
Plan your family. Its I like this all over Africa.
The pandemic and Ukraine war is a scape goat; the rich are and always have been to blame.
But why blaming the rich? They work just like others . They just have more access to resources.
@@emmalee617 So access to resources to buy the ability to work less. This idea that rich people work hard for what they have is a myth that they spread. Most of the wealth in the world is inherited. Elon Musk is not a self-made man; he was rich before he was born.
I agree with you. Why bother worrying about other humans, when you have more than enough for life times. God sees all. 🙏

Global Warming is making, add that with soaring inflation too high for these people to afford basic food
Unfortunately, this is happening in Brazil too, Where we are now 60 million people in food insecurity, not only in Africa where the money you europeans make is at risk
Uhhh you Europeans?? Your either a troll or ignorant you may wanna study but more what foreign country makes the most from Africa before you comment.
African men who multipled their population one thousand times in one hundred years, irresponsibly stand on 60% of the worlds arable land and WILL NOT TOIL THE FIELDS bc they find manual labour demeaning. It's the same in ME countries where children and women work and men swagger around with guns pretending they are important. Countries claiming they are being genocided are ACTUALLY quadrupling their populations on foreign aid, with the help of these manipulative exploitative documentaries lying and blaming someone else for their responsibilities.
Hating on men who FEED THEIR KIDS and control overbreeding, is a program to make it seem justifiable for irresponsble unproductive self indulgent men to invade and rob Europe of what its people worked for. In these vids you NEVER EVER see ANYONE working. Meanwhile there are countless vids of our men and women, homesteading, living on peanuts, working long long hours digging fields and growing their own food, and harvesting their own water and building their own homes...and prospering from nothing to something which TAKES WORK these people are never seen doing. All they do is sit around whining with their hand stretched out, pretending that it is someone elses fault they are pregnant and do'nt have food for their kids. OUR girls work and wait until they have the means to support kids before getting pregnant. It's a concept these people do not consider. i'm sick of being bled dry by this outstanding opportunistic manipulative garbage reporting. GET A SHOVEL< GET SOME SEEDS< DO SOME FIELD WORK AND CLOSE YOUR LEGS until you have enough food to feed your kids. It's NOT ROCKET SCIENCE>

Billionaires in Africa and middle East would rather invest in real estate in West than feed poor Africans!
@@susankeith326 but it is Africa that is crying, not every other country... got it ?
@@rajasekhare9573 So very true.
Poverty, hunger, malnourishment, famine, high mortality, high birth rate, etc ...These have been going on for decades. Many countries are still plagued by the same problems today. Most of the problems are due to man-made factors.
The food crisis as it soars and lives are lost every second, no one truly feels the pain to take up the responsibility to halt, the madness of injustice in resource distribution around the world. Food waste and hoarding are still prevalent in many countries and known to the international communities, who are only busy calling expensive summits one after another or publishing reports without actually taking the action on the ground. How many more generations will perish before the very essence of sustainability is endorsed, that has only come to exist as a fancy term, unfortunately.
This war happened when East Africa was in the 3rd year of drought. Domestic animal herds have dwindled. Grain stocks had long been exhausted. Hungry wild animals now roam villages looking for food.

Agricultural development is one of the most powerful tools to end extreme poverty, boost shared prosperity, and feed a projected 9.7 billion people by 2050. Growth in the agriculture sector is two to four times more effective in raising incomes among the poorest compared to other sectors.

The driving force is capitalism and greed.
Don't forget that MILLIONS of children in America are starving as well, you just don't see it on the news, also much drought , and no clean and running water for too many people, in what is the greatest country in the world
i dont think you know what 'starving' means its different than a bit 'hungry', if you are talking about native americans then yes but we all know you mean poor white folks who are so overweight its hard to imagine they are 'starving' - try to be more precise
We are in the end times.
Sad; It shouldn't happened if Leaders stop played politicing.

Just stop making tons of kids if you already have nothing.
A growing number of people chasing limited resources.
Very sad, I have heard similar stories my whole life yet still nothing seems to have been done. It seems that the trappings of government are more important than the voters lives.

This is why secularism is anti human ideology.
Secular and capitalisic countries have stolen wealth of these people. And now instead of blaming those thieves that stole their wealth. Secularism are now teaching people to blame the poor

It's nice to give all problems to climat change.these problems are always there,since many years.where is all money that would payed?it's not with the hungry people
Corrupt government officials. Especially these African countries. I am middle of 50s and I have been hearing hunger of African people since I was teen. All this time they didn't do anything!
they need to learn .how to make it
And why is it hitting Africans the most, a continent with so much un used fertile land where in many areas one doesnt need fertilisers!

Western countries are so generous that we send them tons of food and money so they can have more kids. As a result, they now have the strength and the numbers to hike, swim, and build boats to become refugees in western countries so we can continue to give them tons of money and food in the form of welfare and now also housing. But that’s not all, many will commit crimes in their new homes so now we have to put them in prisons where we have to once again pay tons of money to house and feed them while they are incarcerated . If we really think about it, all of western countries problems with crime, poverty, inflation, and global warming due to over population are all self inflicted. We created all of our problems but are too stupid to realize it.

Should the world not ban beef production for a year or two? I've heard it takes 7 lbs of grain to produce 1 lb of beef. Subsidize cattle farmers & free up huge amounts of grain to feed our brothers & sisters. I love a good steak but I love my brother more. Let's work together. Ban beef production and eat 20% less each wk. We can help! We can do "some" things. P*E*A*C*E
The rate is more like 18 to 1, however, abstaining from meat will not solve the hunger problem.
Not that you shouldn't try.
I'm a vegetarian myself, but there is enough food available - the problem is still distribution.
The problem is the lack of knowledge or resources of farmers in the global south to farm efficiently or deal with disasters.
The problem is that 80% of the global food market is in the hands of a handful of conglomerates.
The problem is that even in the West some farmers earn so little that they live on the edge of the subsistence level, the problem is that in parts of Africa and Asia it is better for fishermen to sell their catch as fishmeal to rich countries than to the local population.
Etc…
It's the market and by extension the system as a whole that is the problem.
As long as profits are the main motive for political action and it is more profitable to let people starve, people will starve.

Since this war started things have become extremely hard in Nigeria, we weren't eating on Gold plates but the instances of going to bed without food or electricity is becoming the new norm. In all honesty idc about ukaraine or Russia I just don't want my family to starve to death because of sanctions that have even mad Russia richer and stronger, so whats the use? Now Russia seems to be winning and if they do the whole war was for nothing and the people who died of hunger in Africa will get no medals of honor only a shallow grave because the undertaker's are too weak to dig a bigger one. G7 or whoever handling sanctions must come live in Africa to see the cause and effect. Shame on the west and shame on Ukraine for letting themselves be used
Meaning? There will be more economic catastrophic and food crisis due to the war and climate change.
you traded food for fuel some random useless(except for the one behide it) conflict 🤡🤡🤡💀⚰
Ok. Well they are growing alfafa in Az and have water parks there. Folks are not serious about the water limitations.
Many African countries have become dependent on other countries for survival. They have lost the desire to be self-sufficient. Agriculture can be adjusted to each environment. Rain catching systems should be abundant in all of east and NE Africa. Green houses in some areas would be beneficial as well. Smaller family units would lead to more education and advancement over time.
Exactly. I saw video of some African village. They need water but won't dig a well. The children would walk 4 miles to get water. Foreigners came to dig a well for them. Reason why they didn't? Because there were always westerners came to do things for them. So just sit and wait and moaning....
Sure, Western countries done a lot of harm to African countries but you need to help yourselves before others can help you!
Definitely can reproduce exponentially and expect the world to rush in and save them , particularly as climate change becomes more severe.
@@emmalee617 I can't get over the number of children. If I had no food etc. I would be very careful not to get pregnant. They don't seem to understand that if you can't feed one child, it will be much worse with two or three

To illustrate global food crisis, you haven't find anything else than the faces of Africans and their children.
Are there not people who are hungry elsewhere in the world?
Is Qatar free from hunger? Probably yes. And the reason is probably the blessings of God, I mean natural resources.
The thing is God in his mercy has also blessed many countries in Africa with similar natural resources. But unfortunately in Africa despite the resources millions and millions must symbolize hunger, food crisis, poverty, etc due the effects of organised criminals, modern slavers, predators and dictators.
For centuries our faces must be used to explain the worst: poverty, misery, hunger, etc. Organised criminals, modern slavers, etc who are the principle of such misery no one say anything about.
Thus if there no hungry kids in Qatar you can use to illustrate your 'Inside Story', please leave our children alone and have the decency not to use their image to illustrate your emission.
Well, then you must do something so all the aid to Africa would stop and used elsewhere. Can you?

Dear GJP. I've read around 10 of your comments spread over from 2 months ago: You seem to limit yourself to projections from UN and downstream institutions. As in this video, reality is, politics plays the major part.
Recently, during SCO meeting it was revealed that 300 thousand tons of Russian fertilizers have accumulated in the sea ports of European Union and Russia is willing to transfer them to developing countries (Africa and others) free of charge.
Sanctions have been lifted off Russian wheat, but only for EU nations. Africa cannot have them.
I see so many comments below blaming the victims, typical right-wing "empathy". One day YOU won't have food to eat. What will you say then?!!!
The problem does not seem to be the need for readjustment of the system. It is vital to overhaul the system. In the new system, we need to consider planet earth as one ecosystem, and consequently, all countries as one system.
a great place to start would be to have population levels as of 1960.. what could be so wrong with this ?
no good manage
Wars in Europe (ie important countries) have global issues, wars in unimportant countries (ie most African countries, south Asian and non oil producing nations. Do not have global issues. For all people its water. Food. Fuel. Minerals and industrial production. If you have most of these your stable, if not you become less stable the more you lack!
It looks like the common problem they have in Africa is water shortage, and they have been having this problem for a long time. The African people need to build some desalination water plants to make fresh water widely available for humans, animals, and agriculture. It shouldn’t be that costly for the rest of the world to chip-in.
it's costly and poluting
Often desalination has problems also, besides cost, it has problematic outputs. Maybe concentrated saline could be piped to inland deserts, some such places had people that historically gathered such salt from prehistoric lake beds for lucrative trade...
It’s expensive but it’s a good investment that can help a lot of people become self sufficient in food. If it costs $100 billion for the entire continent, it’s well worth it. It’s small change for the rest of the world.
Chip in…. No that’s getting old not unless there’s a repayment no chop in unless you wanna “chip in”

Sientists and policy makers are important. However, what is really needed is more on-the-ground ACTION by qualified, energetic, get-your-hands-dirty, people teaching locals basic techniques like rainwater harvesting and intensive organic gardening/farming. These techniques ARE being used in Africa, India, and other "developing countries" and can be done by individuals. Cooperate wth governmens but, don´t depend upon them. Look up videos about rainwater harvesting, Brad Lancaster, Zephaniah Phi Maseko; John Jeavons, Grow Biointensive, The Man Who Stopped the Desert.
