Climate change is a big cause of rising global hunger. UK leaders need to commit new money for climate action so communities can build climate resilience and prevent worsening hunger. Tell leaders to #TakeHungerSeriously 👇 Sign our petition today: bit.ly/3Wr81Sq

The @UN has warned that #Sudan is suffering one of the worst humanitarian crises in recent history. @AJEnglish has reported that more than 18 million Sudanese are facing acute food insecurity – 10 million more than at this time last year ⤵️ bit.ly/3wYQiHg

It’s unacceptable that countries that didn’t cause the climate crisis should have to pay the price. 📣 Ask @RishiSunak to ensure that the #UKGov does its bit @COP28_UAE & pushes for the funding people need to adapt to #ClimateChange. Share this video now. #COP28 #ClimateCrisis

We are disappointed to hear that aid spending is not anticipated to return to 0.7% of national income for another five years. This is a blow to people living in extreme poverty and prolongs a cut that has already cost countless lives in fragile places. bit.ly/3R4egqV
