|Description=Conflict, climate, and COVID-19 are driving hunger and a sharp rise in the lack of food in many fragile and humanitarian contexts. In FY20, World Vision delivered humanitarian aid to 27.9 million people, of which 15 million received food assistance. World Vision is able to reach suffering families and children in the hardest-hit countries as the World Food Program's largest partner. Because of donor partnerships, every dollar that you invest with World Vision becomes eight dollars.
|Description=War in Ukraine Creates Deadly Shock Waves of Hunger. In February 2022, war broke out between Russia and Ukraine. As the world bears witness to its atrocities, a global hunger crisis looms for an estimated 863 million people in 91 countries facing hunger and insufficient food consumption.     When crisis happens in one part of the world, it can send shock waves across the globe.

=Challenge=
Millions of children are one step away from starvation and facing the threat of famine. Urgent life-saving action is needed NOW to prevent a humanitarian hunger crisis in which hundreds of thousands of children could die. Famine has no place in the 21st century and is entirely preventable. Conflict, COVID-19 and climate change are now interacting to create new and worsening hunger hotspots and reversing the gains families had made to escape poverty.
For decades, Ukraine has been the breadbasket to the Global South. Ukrainian and Russian grains provide more than one-third of the wheat imported by 45 African and least-developed countries. Shortages of food, fuel and fertilizers from Ukraine and Russia is having a compounding effect-the resulting rise in fuel and fertilizer costs are hampering the ability of smallholder farmers (roughly half of them women) to produce and store enough food in the coming seasons.

=Long-Term Impact=
1. Improve access to clean water hygiene and sanitation promotion services to mitigate waterborne diseases 2. Improve access to food for affected households 3. Increase access to curative and preventive quality emergency health and nutrition services 4. Improve sustainable livelihoods to support households and communities to multiply resilient food systems 5. Ensure protection for children, women and vulnerable groups, including psychosocial support for girls & women
Without urgent humanitarian action, we risk letting millions more women, children and families reach the brink of famine. And without immediate investments in increased agricultural production, improved storage and expanded crop diversification, we could face a critical tipping point between under-nutrition and malnutrition in communities already on the margin.
