NewsGuard 100/100 Score

Tjada McKenna, deputy coordinator for development for Feed the Future, and Jonathan Shrier, acting special representative for global food security and deputy coordinator for diplomacy for Feed the Future, examine efforts to end global hunger through a "whole-of-government approach" in this article on the initiative's webpage. McKenna and Shrier highlight efforts in Haiti, Guatemala, Senegal, Uganda, Ghana and Bangladesh, noting "all are supported through a range of different U.S. Government organizations under Feed the Future, the U.S. Government's global hunger and food security initiative." They continue, "Together -- and with the help of our development partners from universities, the research community, multilaterals, the private sector, and the NGO community -- we are working to break the cycle of poverty and food insecurity that has led millions in the developing world to lives of chronic hunger and undernutrition" (4/26).
