Global Poverty and Hunger Solutions

Around 836 million people live in extreme poverty globally. About 300 million people, mostly in Southern Asia and Africa, live on less than $1.25 per day. One in seven children, around 90 million, under age five are undernourished and have health problems. Every day in 2014, 42,000 people had to abandon their homes due to conflict. The goals are to eradicate extreme poverty and hunger by reducing poverty rates, providing zero-interest loans, and supporting agriculture and food security. By 2030, the hope is to reduce extreme poverty to zero and ensure equal rights and access to resources for the poor and vulnerable. This will be achieved through support for employment, food assistance programs, and technical advice
