9/22/2017 0 Comments world hunger Hunger and malnutrition are one of the biggest issues in this world, especially developing countries. Even now, many people are suffering food loss in the other side of the earth. Many people lose their lives because of these issues. In my country, almost all people can eat enough and delicious foods. Therefore, many people live in Japan have never worried about whether I can eat something tomorrow or not. There is always something to eat when I am hungry. However, we should take care of these issues and make efforts to reduce it. Many people are starving in all over the world. In Japan, many people don’t exactly know about the hunger of this world, but many people try to do volunteer works to know the environment of the country. I read three articles from the text book and one article from internet. According to these articles, this issue has reached a tipping point as David Nabarro suggested. From the three articles of textbook, these show forty countries from Africa, Asia, and Latin America are at the front of the Scaling Up Nutrition Movement. The result is that they reduce the percentage of their children who are chronically undernourished. Furthermore, Latin America and the Caribbean countries have made significant process in tackling hunger and malnutrition, reducing the number of hungry. In 1990-1992, 14.6 percent of the populations were hungry, while by 2010-2013,8.3% were hungry. Next, from the article of internet, it shows the rate of stunting, underweight, and wasting is decreasing. First of all, between 2000 and 2013 stunting prevalence declined from 33 percent to 25 percent. In addition, between 1990 and 2013the rate of underweight declined 25 percent to 15 percent. Moreover, wasting in the under-five years old declined from 1990 to 2013. In conclusion, overall progress is not sufficient and millions of people remain hungry, however, it has reached a tipping point. When it comes to compere the articles from the textbook to the article from internet, Both of them shows that the rate of hunger is getting down. In addition, nowadays, many people care about the issues and many people donate money or stuff to some organization because many people think that they want to do something for the people who lives in poor country. Furthermore, some people gather some stuff and take those to poor countries as a volunteer. Besides, many projects contribute to decrease hunger and malnutrition. If they keep doing this projects, the issue will be getting better and we can make it eradicate. In my opinion, important point to eradicate hunger and malnutrition from this world is that don’t give up and keep it up.
