Take action: advocacy campaigns

We're constantly calling on the UK Government to take global hunger seriously and take action that will save lives.

Make your voice heard by getting involved in our advocacy campaigns. Together, we can end world hunger.

With hunger still rising and famine conditions presenting in multiple countries, actions like signing petitions or writing to your MP about hunger are essential. We must to show our elected officials what matters – saving lives by making sure everyone in the world has enough to eat.

With every action you take, you’re helping to end malnutrition for good and build momentum to create meaningful change for communities across the world.

Campaigning is a key part of our work in the UK, and includes:

  • launching petitions and write-to-MP campaigns to hold the Government accountable
  • holding in-person demonstrations in and around Westminster and the Houses of Parliament
  • organising meetings between our advocates and members of parliament.

And behind the scenes, our advocacy team is making sure your voice is heard.

Join our campaigns to make a life-saving difference to people facing hunger across the globe.

Conflict and hunger
