Global Hunger Index
The Global Hunger Index (GHI) is a tool used to track and measure hunger and malnutrition worldwide. It combines various factors such as undernourishment, child wasting (low weight for height), child stunting (low height for age), and child mortality rates. Each country receives a score that indicates the severity of hunger, ranging from low to alarming levels. The GHI helps governments, organizations, and researchers identify and address hunger-related issues, guiding efforts to reduce food insecurity and improve nutrition globally. Regular updates on the GHI highlight progress and challenges in combating hunger across different regions.
