Right now, tens of millions of children are facing malnutrition, starvation and food insecurity. Spiralling food costs, conflict and climate change have reversed decades of progress. Malnutrition stunts development, weakens immune systems, and is linked to nearly half of all preventable deaths in children under five. In a broken, unequal food system, families face impossible choices, often leading to child labour or early marriage. But we know there is enough food for every child to thrive.

World Vision tackles extreme hunger by delivering emergency food aid, treating malnutrition, and supporting long-term food security. As one of UN World Food Programme’s key partners, we help ensure children in the most vulnerable contexts get enough food. Through child nutrition programmes, climate-smart farming, & advocacy, families can build sustainable futures that work towards ending child hunger. In the past decade, 89% of severely malnourished children we treated have made a full recovery.
