The Current 21st Century World Hunger Crisis Originated During The Time Of The Great Depression and World War II.
The economic collapse around the world during World War II started the world hunger crisis as there was a huge food shortage and people couldn't afford to purchase food or products. People across the globe couldn't afford the products they normally purchased or needed so they opted for food alternatives to satisfy those needs. Normally, meat and starches were commonly found in homes during this time. -
The "Freedom Of Hunger Campaign" Was Created In The 1960's To Raise Awareness About The Growing Crisis.
The objective of this campaign was to draw attention to the growing food shortage crisis as a result of World War II. Although, that did not happen. The process to make this a successful program would've taken much too long and an attempt to recreate the program didn't work. Therefore, raising awareness to the problem at the time was halted and almost no attention was given to world hunger. -

Food Shortages
This is when food shortages started to become a major problem for most people and their families in developing nations. This issue mostly affected those that have to survive harsh winters and conditions. People within organizations would also withdraw from programs that would normally these people in need. Food shortages in these developing countries will eventually lead into long-term hunger. -
First Ever World Food Conference
The first ever World Food Conference was held in Rome to discuss the growing issue of world hunger. The outcome of this conference was a decade long plan that would leave no child in the entire world going to sleep hungry, and every family not having to worry about being hungry. For the plan to be fully successful, four steps would have to be carefully and properly followed. The four steps required to end world hunger was asking a lot out of everyone so the plan could do what it was intended.
