Hunger is caused by many events, including the poverty trap, natural disasters, war, poor agricultural infrastructure, and over-exploitation of the environment. By researching this topic, I can explain to society what state this problem is in and of course suggest some solutions. An important meaning of my problem is the study of Africa's position on the international agricultural market, which is a significant and influential factor in the development of the economy of African countries and the state of my problem.
According to FAO (Food and Agriculture Organisation) gauges, for 2017, the planet produces a sufficient amount of food to cover the needs for food of everyone. However, approximately 800 million individuals endure starvation (Theworldonly,2017). This can be one in nine, 60% of them are female. (Theworldonly,2017). According to Kuprin (2020), The poorest nation within the world is South Sudan: 70% of the population of this state knows what nourishment deficiencies are. Kenya positions moment on this list with 51% of the population starving. The third result was in Nigeria (47%) (Kuprin I. 2020). This troublesome circumstance was disturbed by the reality that a dangerous infection has spread all over the world and the number of starving people has increased (Anthem, 2020).
The Covid – 19 virus hit the economies of the countries and in my point of view the African countries got more problems considering that they already hadn’t very good support. The main proofs are journalists and people who have visited these countries. In my opinion, not everyone will indifferently watch how so many people die. It can be added that they don’t deserve it and that fate presented them with a not very good turn of events. On the World Wide Web, you can see many photos taken by journalists, and every time just looking at these defenseless children, we will not help.
I would like to note that my primary inspiration was blogger Anton Ptushkin who makes a difference in African families and I was moved by the level of their socio-economic conditions. Having watched his programs I realized that this issue needs deliberate attention and I hope to shed the light and raise the awareness of my surrounding to this problem.
