What's Missing? |
| The obstacles to ending hunger are deeply entrenched in Bangladeshi society. On a daily basis, hungry people face the challenge of providing for their families in the face of traditional prejudices, unjust laws, corruption, failed economic policies, and the severe subjugation of women. | ![]() |
These are obstacles that cannot be overcome through large scale aid programs, that are not created and managed by local people themselves. Neither can they be addressed by small-scale interventions, that ignore the system of the persistence of chronic hunger.
When we work strategically in The Hunger Project, we aim to uncover what's missing overall - that if provided - would cause the biggest breakthrough in ending hunger.
The following pages look at two pieces to what's missing to end hunger in Bangladesh: 1) Vision and people's participation, and 2) Women's empowerment as agents of change.
