Halve, between 1990 and 2015, the proportion of people who suffer from hunger Hunger may have spiked in 2009, one of the many
dire consequences of the global food and financial crises. Progress to end hunger has been stymied in most regions. Despite
some progress, one in four children in the developing world are still underweight. Children in rural areas are nearly twice
