Deputy Executive Director
Hunger is one of the strongest forces of exclusion. It keeps poor people poor. Malnutrition is one of the most common causes of disabilities. It stops millions of people from attaining their full physical and intellectual potential. It prevents people from participating in development. Promoting prosperity and inclusion means we have to resolve hunger globally - not only the acute kinds of malnutrition seen in Africa, but also the chronic and often "hidden" hunger still affecting this region.
