The UN says global hunger has hit a new high
Briefly

In 2024, the United Nations reported that nearly 300 million people face acute hunger globally, a situation worsened by reduced funding from major donor countries. Conflicts such as those in Sudan, driven by civil war, and the blockade in Gaza have exacerbated the crisis. Climate change and economic challenges affect 96 million people across 18 nations, emphasizing the urgent need to address systemic failures in humanitarian responses. The growing fears related to food insecurity highlight the pressing intersection of humanitarian, economic, and climate issues worldwide.
Nearly 300 million people facing acute hunger in 2024 shows the world is dangerously off course, with conflicts and climate change exacerbating the crisis.
The reality in places like Sudan reflects a confluence of armed conflict and humanitarian neglect that creates larger, systemic issues contributing to food insecurity.
