Research

Action Against Hunger works on both technical and policy research.  Technical research explores research questions that increase our knowledge of the tools and processes needed to successfully fight hunger and malnutrition. Policy research supports our understanding of the trends, rates and impact of hunger and malnutrition on communities worldwide.

Our findings and recommendations are used to inform and influence humanitarian practices and policies, enabling Action Against Hunger to enhance its own capacities, fine-tune programme effectiveness and influence external stakeholders.

Policy research in the UK is managed by the Hunger Watch team.  Action Against Hunger scientific research is coordinated by an International Scientific Committee.
