ABOUT US
The Global Alliance
The Global Alliance Against Hunger and Poverty represents an innovative approach to accelerate efforts to implement the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 1 (No Poverty) and 2 (Zero Hunger).
It aims to provide continuous political drive and foster collective action, building synergies with pre-existing initiatives to combat hunger and poverty. Its mission is to facilitate mobilization and enhance alignment between national and international support, including public and private financial resources as well as knowledge-sharing, to enable the large-scale implementation of evidence-based policy instruments and programs, led by and owned by countries, centred around those most affected by extreme poverty and hunger and people in vulnerable contexts.
The Global Alliance Against Hunger and Poverty welcomes the participation of countries, organizations, and platforms, aiming to leverage innovation, collaboration, and evidence-based decision-making to support the implementation of policies and programs.
