The Global Hunger Index (GHI) Report at  https://www.globalhungerindex.org/ is produced by Concern Worldwide, based in Ireland, and Welthungerhilfe, based in Germany.   These Non-Governmental Organizations  (NGOs) are expert in global food security and hunger issues.  This most recent GHI estimates  that as many as 828 Million people, in the 134 poorest countries in the world, will not have enough food to eat this coming year due to Conflict, Climate Change and the Covid-19 Pandemic.  The report also calls on world governments to add or enshrine the “right to food” within their regulations and laws.
