Poverty and world hunger are closely linked, with malnutrition resulting from lack of access to adequate food, shelter, education, and healthcare due to poverty. Over 800 million people suffer from malnutrition and nearly 25,000 people die daily from hunger-related causes. Children are disproportionately affected, as poverty spikes have pushed millions more into hunger. Individuals can help address world hunger through donations or volunteering with organizations providing food and assistance.
