Food insecurity is what affects families or low-income people who are not sure that they are regularly or constantly getting food. According to the non-governmental organization Acción, every second Peruvian in the country lives with this danger.
For America Arias, the organization’s director, the numbers are “enormous.” “One in two Peruvians is now food insecure.which means they don’t have quality food, they can’t eat enough, or they can’t even eat,” he explained.
Most worrying is the knowledge that the country has the tools to avoid this; however, the problem persists, leaving “every second person we meet on the street in distress,” he said.
Due to food insecurity, children can also develop anemia, a disease that blocks their development and prevents them from preparing for school. The numbers of this evil are becoming more and more shocking, and it is affecting the regions with the greatest poverty.
“There is regions where they are more than 60% (juveniles with anemia). We reached communities where 100% of children were anemic. For example, we work in Puno, in Ajoyani. When we arrived a few years ago they were 75% anemic and we managed to bring it down to 12%. We know that this can be fought, but you must have the tools,” the spokeswoman said.
acute malnutrition
After a long defeat acute malnutrition in Peru, the spokeswoman warned of some identified cases affecting migrant children who arrive “like terminal kittens,” he elaborated. “If the problem is not solved now, the problem of access to food will worsen in the next two years,” he added.
Do?
All is not lost for the press secretary; however, there is an urgent need to work in coordination between governments and private companies, which should focus their efforts on areas with the least resources and support organizations that contribute to reducing hunger.
“We have to open up and start working together. We must act immediately with the most vulnerable people by giving them immediate access to food, whether it be direct delivery to common potsbe it fertilizer, water delivery, and more,” America Arias said.
“Now is the time to start working together. Private sector participation should be facilitated. State bodies should cooperate, everything needs to be settled quickly, and not just make a proposal,” he added.
