According to Action Against Hunger, over 2.6 billion people cannot afford to eat a healthy diet, revealing that the primary cause of hunger isn't scarcity but systemic issues. This complex crisis is driven by a combination of interconnected factors, including poverty, inequality, conflict, and climate change. Understanding these root causes is essential for developing effective strategies to achieve global food security.

According to the World Food Programme, over 700 million people worldwide face chronic hunger. The 24 hour famine is a poignant and impactful fundraising event that allows individuals, particularly young people, to take tangible action against this global crisis by experiencing a small portion of what millions endure every day.
