Although the world produces enough food to feed everyone, one in seven people on our planet go to bed hungry each night. Oxfam’s GROW campaign is about growing food more sustainably. Do you agree that there should always be enough food for everyone on the planet? Then be a part of a future where everyone has enough to eat, always.
One in seven people go to bed hungry each night. Not because there isn’t enough food to go round but because of the unfair way that food is produced and shared throughout the world. And also because many of the methods we use to grow food today are wasting and destroying the natural resources on which we all rely. It’s time to GROW.
Let’s grow more food, more fairly and more sustainably. Let’s call on our governments to take urgent action to reform bad policies. Let’s preserve our diminishing resources and share them fairly. Together we can alter the way we produce, consume and think about food.
“A lifetime of experience has taught me that there is no problem so great it cannot be solved, no injustice so deeply entrenched it cannot be overcome. And that includes hunger.” Desmond Tutu, Archbishop Emeritus of Cape Town.
