Global Hunger Index
Tool that measures and tracks hunger / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Global Hunger Index (GHI) is a tool that attempts to measure and track hunger globally as well as by region and by country, prepared by European NGOs of Concern Worldwide and Welthungerhilfe.[1] The GHI is calculated annually, and its results appear in a report issued in October each year.

The 2022 Global Hunger Index shows a dramatic hunger situation worldwide. Global progress in ending hunger is at a near standstill. The main drivers of hunger are conflicts, the climate crisis, and the economic consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic. These drivers come on top of underlying factors such as poverty, inequality, and inadequate governance.
