One dies of hunger every four seconds: NGOs warn | One person dies of hunger every four seconds: Warning

About two hundred NGOs such as Oxfam, Save the Children and Plan International have warned that every four seconds one person in the world dies of hunger. 238 organizations from 75 countries have told the United Nations that international action is needed to overcome the global hunger crisis.

345 million people are now suffering from severe hunger. More than double compared to 2019. Despite promises from world leaders to end famine in the 21st century, the African country of Somalia is still in dire straits. The letter jointly presented by the NGOs states that 50 lakh people are on the verge of hunger in 45 countries.

An estimated 19,700 people die of hunger every day. In that case, a global warning comes out that every four seconds a person dies of hunger.

Ahmad Ali Eljebali of the Yemen Family Care Association said it’s bad that hunger is a problem even in this century with all the technology related to agriculture. This is not a single country or continent problem. He said it is about the injustice faced by the entire human race.
