About ACTION CONTRE LA FAIM
Action contre la Faim (ACF) is a non-governmental organization that has been fighting against hunger and malnutrition for over 40 years. The humanitarian organization was founded in France in 1979, and since then, it has expanded its operations to more than 50 countries worldwide. ACF's mission is to save lives by eliminating hunger through the prevention, detection, and treatment of malnutrition.
The organization's primary focus is on providing emergency relief to people affected by natural disasters, conflicts, and other crises. ACF works tirelessly to ensure that vulnerable populations have access to food, clean water, sanitation facilities, and healthcare services. The organization also provides long-term solutions aimed at addressing the root causes of hunger.
One of ACF's core values is innovation. The organization constantly seeks new ways to improve its programs and services so that it can better serve those in need. For example, ACF has developed a range of innovative tools such as the "Nutrition Smart Survey" which helps identify malnourished children quickly.
ACF also places great emphasis on collaboration with local communities and partners. By working closely with local organizations and governments in the countries where it operates, ACF can ensure that its programs are tailored to meet the specific needs of each community.
In addition to emergency relief efforts, ACF also focuses on advocacy work aimed at raising awareness about global hunger issues. Through campaigns such as "Stop Hunger" or "Zero Hunger", they aim at influencing policy makers around the world towards taking action against global hunger.
ACF's work has had a significant impact over the years; millions of people have benefited from their programs worldwide. In 2020 alone they reached out more than 17 million people across different countries including Yemen where they provided life-saving assistance during one of the worst humanitarian crises ever recorded.
In conclusion Action contre la Faim remains committed towards achieving their goal - ending world hunger once for all!
