HUNGER
IN THE WORLD EXPLAINED TO MY SON
In an increasingly rich world, thirty million human beings
die of hunger every year, and hundreds of millions are malnourished.
The personal wealth of the fifteen richest people on the planet
is equivalent to the GDP of all the countries of Sub-Saharan
Africa, and a child in the first world consumes as much as
50 children in the third world. How is this possible? Why
do we accept such a monstrous injustice?
How can we even begin to explain such an absurdity?
The program explains regions of the world that have suffered
catastrophes, natural disasters and famines such as Somalia,
Afghanistan, Cambodia or North Korea, whose governments subject
their populations to the bitterest poverty.
But importantly the video also shows men and women whose work
it is to carry out development projects that not only are
contributing to mitigating hunger, but are also managing to
recover vast desert regions where, until very recently, life
was impossible.
