Food Insecurity:
According to the United Nations' Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), an estimated 828 million people worldwide were undernourished in 2021, meaning they did not have enough food to meet their basic nutritional needs. This number represents approximately 11.7% of the global population.
Homelessness:
As of 2020, the United Nations estimated that over 100 million people worldwide were homeless. This includes people living on the streets, in emergency shelters, or in temporary housing. However, it's important to note that homelessness is a complex issue with varying definitions and data collection methodologies, making it challenging to provide a precise global figure.
It is important to note that these estimates may vary depending on different organizations and methodologies used in data collection. Additionally, factors such as poverty, natural disasters, conflicts, and political instability can significantly affect the number of individuals facing these challenges.
