World Hunger: A Comparative Analysis

The world is not caring about the more important things in life such as being thankful for what they have and where they live, having great support systems, and being educated. All these things are great to have in order to be successful but in the shadows are the ones who don’t have the opportunity to have those things and not having these things lead to those who end being homeless, hungry, or resort to violence.

Poverty Poverty is one of the main cause of world hunger. In fact, poverty and hunger are closely linked to one another. One who suffers from poverty is most likely experiencing hunger as well. It has been noted that most victims of extreme poverty (defined as having an income of equal or less than $1.25 per day) found in developing countries are also experiencing hunger. Poverty can be the result of a variety of factors including the unequal distribution of income, lack of resources, wars, and of course, hunger itself.

Hunger and Food Insecurity in San Francisco Hunger and Food insecurity is a prevalent social issue that is not only evident throughout the United States of America, but specifically in the streets of San Francisco. Over the past few years, the City has had a high demand on food and nutrition services. According to the San Francisco Food Bank, “[it is estimated] that 1 in 5 adults in San Francisco struggle each day to feed themselves and their families” (International Urban Food Network). This can lead to many negative health issues and can further become a nationwide epidemic. Although experiencing hunger is not physically felt by everyone, it has somehow impacted every individual in San Francisco. Hunger and food insecurity is an issue that

World Hunger can be taken up by the media or the Internet. Social Constructionism is how everyone, or the society, sees a problem. Also, this theory studies knowledge and things around the world are not real in themselves. They only exist because of the reality the media gives them.

Hunger is a very real problem in poverty stricken nations around the world, but we don't always combat this problem in the way we should. In most cases we donate food to be distributed for free or at a reduced cost in poverty stricken areas, and while this does provide food, it can also hurt the local economy. Most jobs in impoverished nations are in agriculture, so sending cheap food makes it harder for the farmers to sell their product. In order to combat hunger in these areas without hurting the local economy, the answer is not to send in more competitively priced food, the answer is to use the food that is already there. I propose that support organizations instead of asking for food donations, ask for money. They could then use the money

Poverty. World Hunger. The burning question… what is poverty? What is hunger? According to Dictonary.com, poverty “is a state or condition in which a person or community lacks the financial resources and essentials to enjoy a minimum standard of life and well-being that's considered acceptable in society”. Additionally “Hunger is a feeling of discomfort or weakness caused by lack of food, coupled with the desire to eat.” Poverty includes many facets like the lack of food.

Throughout this article, Tom Risen discusses the objectives set by the United Nations to end extreme poverty and World Hunger. The objectives set by the United Nations were known as the Millennium Development Goals and most of the goals were achieved throughout the reform. The United Nations set formidable goals to diminish global poverty and hunger by 2015. While the project successfully cut World Hunger into a small percentage and poverty in half, the multinational groups were conflicted about how much developing regions such as sub-Saharan Africa can enhance by the year 2030. The campaign was also able to help reduce the death of children under the age of five by vaccination efforts against measles. Mr. Risen additionally describes how the

Over the course of many years, Hinman discovers that, “the World Bank had defined the absolute poverty level –the level at which people cannot meet basic needs such as food, water, shelter, and the like-at $1 per day income. On that basis, it was calculated that one billion people live in poverty. (Hinman, 364) ” Over one billion people including children are living with nothing that needs help more than ever. It is up to the wealthier nations such as the United States to take the acceptances of their moral responsibility and take it into action on the growing world hunger and poverty that is not only affecting our very own neighbors here in the United States but our neighbors around the world. As a nation, we need to come to together to fight against this particular moral issue of world hunger. I’ve conducted a research on world hunger and poverty from the point of view from the Catholic Church, how world hunger has evolved over time and expose the particular stance of world hunger and poverty.

As we look around our world today, we see many of the struggles we face as a nations combined. From the striking pace of global warming to the never-ending reoccurrence of both civil and international wars, there is still one issue that seems to continuously be thrown on the backburner. Whether it be the highly industrialized United States and China or the severely undeveloped areas of Sub-Saharan Africa, the pandemic of world hunger plagues all countries alike. According to Oxford English Dictionary (2014), hunger is referred to as the feeling of pain or weakness due to an absence of food, but what causes this ‘absence of food’? What prevents those suffering from accessing the proper nourishment? According to recent case studies and statistical data, the worldwide dilemma of hunger has been directly linked to the increasing presence of poverty. It has since then been hypothesized that the issues surrounding world hunger can ultimately be excised by directly combatting the matters related to poverty however, this can only be accomplished by first gaining a clear and concise understanding of the problem at hand and only from there, with the aid of government based resources, can we move forth to tackling the causes of poverty and ultimately hunger itself.

Introduction – In many parts of the world people go hungry every day and they don 't have the means to feed themselves or the security that they will eat again. The lands no longer bear fruit and cannot provide for those who counted on them to both survive and make a living. One such example is Ethiopia in Africa, and it is a hot zone of the hunger epidemic.
