What are we learning from the situation in Niger?
We are learning once again that world hunger is still a huge problem, especially in Africa. We need more resources and better systems in place to respond more quickly to these natural disasters and to make the needs of children a top priority. We also need long-term investments in food security, health, education and safe drinking water—and policies to promote more efficient agricultural production-–to help lessen the impact of these kinds of disasters.
