After steadily declining for more than a decade, global hunger is on the rise again, affecting 815 million people in 2016. At the same time, multiple forms of malnutrition threaten the well-being and health of millions of people across the world.
The United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) is partnering with 'The Great Library', a South Korean YouTube star, on an initiative to address the challenge of global hunger. Best known for his work as a video game commentator, The Great Library is sharing his unique voice with WFP through an innovative campaign.
WFP is the leading humanitarian organization fighting hunger worldwide, delivering food assistance in emergencies and working with communities to improve nutrition and build resilience assisting 80 million people in around 80 countries each year.
The world’s first app against global hunger, ShareTheMeal is WFP initiative that empowers people to "share a meal" with people in need. With just a tap on your smartphone you can provide support to a child in need. It costs only US $0.50 to feed one child for a day.
