At a time when there is enough food for everyone on the planet, food security remains elusive for far too many people. More than 800 million people worldwide—almost three times the size of the US population—don’t have enough food to eat.
Decades-long progress to feed more people is now backsliding as the climate crisis, conflict, and COVID-19 converge to push people into poverty—including those who produce, process, and make food available to communities around the world.
Your donation will help Oxfam to support local communities to:
• strengthen local food systems by working with women small-scale farmers, local food entrepreneurs, and Indigenous Peoples
• support resiliency in farming communities that are adapting to climate change and steward the precious natural resources that agriculture relies upon.
• advocate for stronger governmental policies that protect the land and rights of smallholder farmers, small business owners and workers, and women who are often responsible for food in the home.
• tackle the tremendous power and influence held by large food and beverage companies that play an enormous role in the health and equity of our food systems.
