Review UK food aid mechanisms to ensure it is prioritised by need
We urge the Government to launch a review into its current approach to providing humanitarian aid and ensuring global food security to ensure it is prioritised by need and not according to political or ideological considerations.
Hundreds of millions of people face food insecurity across the globe, and we believe aid should be prioritised solely on humanitarian needs. Ensure rapid response mechanisms for regions facing acute malnutrition & famine & other high-risk areas, as well as to support independent monitoring & transparent reporting of food security crises to guide effective interventions. We believe political considerations must never override the urgent need to prevent starvation.
If you want to sign this petition (as opposed to merely discuss it), you need to do that on the government's e-Petitions website.
