852 million people across the world are hungry, up from 842 million a year ago. Chronic poverty is a root cause of hunger. Poverty afflicts half the worlds population. Nearly 3 billion people live on less than $2 a day. Every year, 10.5 million children under the age of five die from diseases and malnutrition as a result of hunger.
