NGO :  The Hunger Project 

 

The Hunger Project is a global non-profit organization working to end hunger and poverty in rural Africa.This week, it is focusing on the issue of food security, which is crucial to MDG 1. 

a new blog post, Annistere MBARGA, writes: 

  "Food security is everyone's business, especially a real phenomenon in Africa, where living conditions are still precarious and the means of resolving them very limited, and thus unable to enable all populations to benefit.The people of northern Cameroon are particularly hard hit by this situation, where they are forced to consume unfiltered water and unprocessed, unfit-for-consumption food, often as a result of climatic difficulties, leading to serious food insecurity."

The Project is calling on governments and donors to invest in programs that strengthen the nutritional capacities of populations in disadvantaged and hard-hit areas, and above all to raise global awareness of the importance of proper management of food before consumption or intended for consumption.
