2.83 billion people can't afford a healthy, nutritious diet - that's 35% of the global population.
Globally, one in eleven people go to bed hungry every night. 85% of people facing hunger crises live in conflict-affected countries.
The world produces enough food to feed all of its 8 billion people, yet 733 million people (1 in 11) go hungry every day.
Hunger rates in Africa are especially high, with 1 out of 5 people going hungry each day.
2.8 billion people around the world cannot afford a
healthy diet — 35% of the global population.In low-income countries, 71.5% of people cannot afford a healthy diet. In high-income countries, that figure drops to 6.3%.
According to the 2024 Global Hunger Index, hunger levels are ranked Serious in 36 countries.
The 2024 Global Hunger Index also rates hunger levels as Alarming in 6 countries: Burundi, Chad, Madagascar, Somalia, South Sudan, and Yemen.

As of this writing, the Integrated Food Phase Classification (IPC) estimates that 1.33 million people around the world are experiencing famine or famine-like conditions.

.As many as 757 million people went hungry in 2023. That means one out of 11 people in the world had too little food for basic health

Sudan is facing a hunger catastrophe. Violent conflict and widespread displacement of people means that over 20 million people faced crisis levels of food shortages in 2023. This situation has not improved, and some areas are now facing famine.
.Hunger is the physical sensation caused by a lack of food, while malnutrition refers to nutritional deficiencies such as lack of protein or energy. However, the two things are closely related and the global hunger crisis is also a malnutrition crisis.. Nearly half of all child deaths are linked to malnutrition
Hunger-related health problems are the single biggest cause of deaths and almost half of child deaths are linked to undernutrition
For those children who survive, the long-term effects of malnutrition are often serious, including impacts on physical and cognitive development.. Malnutrition is treatable, yet fewer than 1 in 5 children get treatment
For those children who survive, the long-term effects of malnutrition are often serious, including impacts on physical and cognitive development.. Malnutrition is treatable, yet fewer than 1 in 5 children get treatment
Around the world, an estimated 45 million children under the age of five experience acute malnutrition at any given time. Up to two million of these children die as a result annually.
There are proven, low-cost treatments for acute malnutrition available, but fewer than 1 in 5 children receive the treatment they need. Simpler approaches can help to improve access. Globally, we have made progress towards ending hunger
.Global hunger has decreased in the past 50 years. While 1 in 11 people are hungry today (9%), this was much higher in 1970, at 1 in 4 (or 24%). Progress is possible.
group of countries. People within these affected areas and countries are facing many challenges at once, which is leading to new hunger crises.. Climate change and conflict are causes of hunger
Natural hazards are increasing as global temperatures rise, and climate-related disasters such as droughts and floods are destroying farmland and leading to food insecurity. Because of climate change, global food prices are expected to rise 20% by 2050.
Conflict is another key factor behind global hunger. The “man-made food crisis” in Sudan is a result of ongoing violent conflict that is exacerbating existing problems such as skyrocketing food pricesWhat can we do about hunger crises?
Despite solutions to malnutrition being available, fewer than 1 in 5 children access treatment. The IRC believes that simplified approaches to malnutrition can address this treatment gap
By simplifying diagnosis and treatment, assessments done by the IRC have shown a 92% recovery rate with 21% lower costs and increased accessibility.
he International Rescue Committee (IRC) helps people whose lives have been shattered by conflict and disaster to survive, recover and rebuild.
Founded in 1933 at the call of Albert Einstein, we now work in over 40 crisis-affected countries as well as communities throughout Europe and the Americas.

GRFC 2024
The Global Report on Food Crises (GRFC) 2024 confirms the enormity of the challenge of achieving the goal of ending hunger by 2030.
In 2023, nearly 282 million people or 21.5 percent of the analysed population in 59 countries/territories faced high levels of acute food insecurity requiring urgent food and livelihood assistance.
This additional 24 million people since 2022 is explained by expanded analysis coverage as well as deteriorating acute food insecurity in some countries outweighing improvements in others.
