Campaigning works. Over the last 20 years, significant progress has been made in reducing hunger levels around the world. 

Over the last two years, our campaigners have: 

  • Petitioned the Prime Minister, Chancellor and Minister for International Development 
  • Met with local MPs 
  • Lobbied in parliament 
  • Raised the alarm in Parliament Square  
  • Taken over Trafalgar Square 

Together, these actions have helped to secure commitments for nutrition and resilience that will make an incredible difference to the lives of millions of people.
