We work to raise awareness and empower rural communities through knowledge and training to adapt to climate change. The Hunger Project supports communities in becoming more resilient to the pressures of environmental degradation, including soil erosion, water pollution and unreliable or catastrophic weather patterns that affect agriculture and food distribution. In fact, research has shown that when people live in healthier environments, they lead healthier lives. Protecting and restoring our natural environment is fundamental to ending hunger and poverty. When they are empowered with knowledge, people can take action to defend their environment and promote sustainable solutions to climate change that benefit their communities for both the present and the future. The effects of climate change are disproportionately felt by our poorest and most vulnerable populations. This year, the Earth Day theme is “ Environmental and Climate Literacy. Earth Day is a call to action for the global community to address climate change, foster a sustainable, healthy environment and protect our planet for future generations. The Hunger Project celebrates Earth Day on April 22, 2017. ![]()
