Research
According to studies reviewed by the World Bank, “in 2013, 10.7 percent of the world’s population lived on less than US$1.90 a day, compared to 12.4 percent in 2012. That’s down from 35 percent in 1990. Nearly 1.1 billion people have moved out of extreme poverty since 1990. In 2013, 767 million people lived on less than $1.90 a day, down from 1.85 billion in 1990.”
Hunger Notes, a Washington D.C. think tank, reports that the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization “estimates that about 795 million people of the 7.3 billion people in the world, or one in nine, were suffering from chronic undernourishment in 2014-2016. Almost all the hungry people, 780 million, live in developing countries, representing 12.9 percent, or one in eight, of the population of developing countries” and that 23.2 percent of the children in Sub-Saharan African nations are undernourished.
While both organizations report recent progress toward addressing hunger worldwide, both organizations also agree much more must be done to ensure every child has access to sufficient food so that they can develop and grow. GLO plans to do just that.
