Welcome To My Blog!

I realize that I have already introduced myself on the homepage, but would like to formally introduce myself once more! My name is Sejal and I recently graduated from high school in the class of 2022.

Over this past year, I have gained an extreme passion towards advocating for global hunger, especially within my own backyard in the state of Texas. I will be spreading my knowledge and passion about world hunger through the use of this blog. You can expect to read about the facts about world hunger, real life stories of others facing the wraths of hunger, and ways you can help to join me in advocating for world hunger.

In this first post, I will start by introducing the UN Global Goals and specifically introduce the 2nd target of Zero Hunger.

In 2015, a group of leaders, called themselves as a part of The United Nations, defined 17 global goals that will be set to accomplish by 2030. One of these 17 global goals is Zero Hunger. This goal states: End hunger, achieve food security and improved nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture.

What exactly is world hunger and how do you define this problem? According to the UN's Hunger Report, hunger is the term used to define periods when populations are experiencing severe food insecurity—meaning that they go for entire days without eating due to lack of money, lack of access to food, or other resources.

Now, what can you do to help and raise a hand in combatting world hunger around the world?

• Well, you can start by first helping around your own community = Find a food bank, volunteer at the food panty, and host food drives to help out

• Don't waste food = Freeze fresh produce and leftovers if you don't have the chance to eat them before they go bad

• WARNING: Please don't trash and waste leftover food from meals

These are just a few things you can do to help reduce the risk of world hunger! You can even discover more about this sustainable goal and click on the links down below to further your understanding about zero hunger.
