2018 global hunger index: forced migration and hunger

By: Contributor(s): Material type: TextTextPublication details: Bonn Deutsche Welthungerhilfe e. V 2018Description: 68pSubject(s): Online resources: Summary: The 2018 Global Hunger Index (GHI) shows that the world has made gradual, long-term progress in reducing overall hunger, but this progress has been uneven. Areas of severe hunger and undernutrition stubbornly persist, reflecting human misery for millions. Worldwide, the level of hunger and undernutrition falls into the serious category, with a GHI score of 20.9. This is down from 29.2 in 2000, equating to a decline of 28 percent. Underlying this improvement are reductions in each of the four indicators used to assemble the GHI: the prevalence of undernourishment, child stunting, child wasting, and child mortality.
