Anyone can become hungry at any time. However, certain groups and people living in certain conditions are more vulnerable to hunger.
Poverty is the main cause of hunger in the world. Around 8% of the world’s population or more than 780 million people worldwide are living in extreme poverty on less than $1.90 per person per day, an amount that cannot support a healthy livelihood in any part of the world.
Young children and their families do not have access to nutritious food unless they have a stable source of income.
