I wish there was….enough for all. There really is if you balance it up on a world scale. We do produce (and waste) a huge amount of food. But with all the technology in the world, we have not figured out the answers to getting good food to all people on our planet at the times of need. Sometime it makes me sad. But most of the time I am encouraged by the wonderful progress being made locally with groups like Fare Share and Oz Harvest and by organisations like World Vision. So on this World Food Day, as a very proud World Vision Blogger Ambassador, let’s take a closer look.
Asia has the highest malnutrition rate of any region in the world. Millions of children born in Asia each year enter the world at a disadvantage compared to children elsewhere. They are born with the burden of malnutrition.
The One Goal campaign is a partnership initiative of World Vision, the Asian Football Confederation, The Global Alliance for Improved Nutrition (GAIN), DSM, and the Asian Football Development Project that seeks to bring awareness to the issue of child malnutrition in Asia and powerfully inspire and mobilise the football community to take action to increase the number of children in Asia who survive and thrive.
