World Hunger:

Every five seconds, another child dies due to hunger and related causes, as a quarter of all hungry people are children. While there is enough food on the planet to feed everyone, the Food and Agriculture Organization estimates (as of 2007) that there are 840 million people undernourished worldwide. World Hunger is directly related to a variety of problems such as disease and a weak economy. When people are hungry and malnourished, they are more likely to get sick with a life threatening disease, especially in poor countries with dirty water sources. If people are hungry or sick, they cannot work efficiently and must also take care of their sick children if they have kids, so this leads to a weaker economy and fewer goods produced. To try and solve this problem, the United Nations has created committees like the World Food Program, which has provided food to Kenyans after the recent post-election violence in Nairobi. Canada believes that it is the moral obligation of industrialized countries to help fight worldwide hunger. This aid may be in the form of financial assistance or developing genetically modified foods, which have more nutrients. In Ethiopia, where 70% of the population lives under the UN established poverty line of $2 per day and people are not able to afford the price of food grains and thus are malnourished, they also believe that richer nations should help out poorer nations in need. Sierra Leone, which also has a lot of hungry people and is in a civil war right now due to an unstable economy and corrupted government, would also like countries to donate food to them. They believe that only a small number of people are causing the civil war, and that the large number of innocent civilians should not die of hunger. To resolve these problems, the United Nations should add more funding to the World Food Program.
