Global Hunger Crisis

"In Sudan, efforts to establish a ceasefire continue to fail. The United Nations Secretary General now warns the conflict could explode into an all-out war that will affect the region for years to come. Nearly four weeks of violence are having a devastating effect on the country, with hundreds killed and thousands fleeing their homes in search of safety. Those left behind or forced into refugee camps are in need of shelter, medicine, clean water and food. The U.N. World Food Programme is urgently working to get the Sudanese people fed. But it’s dangerous work, and operations were temporarily halted when three WPF staff members were killed in the fighting. At the helm of the WFP during this tense time is Cindy McCain, former ambassador and widow of Senator John McCain. She’s just one month into the job, and the challenges go way beyond Sudan. The number of people facing acute food insecurity worldwide has more than doubled to 345 million since 2019 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Ukraine war, regional conflict, and climate change. McCain joins the show from Nairobi."
