+1:Food Security Fund
The African continent is facing a food crisis greater than any other region in the world. Already affecting over 300 million people, the crisis is worsening due to climate variability, political instability, economic downturns, and other shocks. The ensuing hunger and malnutrition puts communities at further risk of violence and exploitation.
Both immediate needs and the root causes of food insecurity need to be addressed, urgently.
+1:WASH fund
The pandemic has shed light on the fragility and inequality of our most foundational systems, while highlighting the innovation and resilience of locally-led, community-based organizations. To improve upon and ultimately change our failing systems for the better we must leverage this moment to support them in profoundly different ways. The +1:WASH initiative is an ambitious, collective effort to catalyze this change.
