THE 1 BILLION HUNGRY PROJECT

Hunger, a quiet crisis, is rarely in the news.

Yet current calculations show that close to one billion people worldwide continue to go hungry on a daily basis. It now appears all but certain that the hunger target associated with UN Millennium Development Goal no. 1 – reduction of hunger by half by 2015 – will not be met.

On reflection, it is a situation that stirs feelings of frustration, indignation, even anger. Most people, if they believed it was within their power to change things, would take action.

The 1billionhungry project is a global communication campaign that offers a constructive outlet for people’s feelings of anger and indignation. It is a carefully orchestrated drive to attract one million signatures to a petition calling on national and international leaders to move hunger to the top of the political agenda.
