Global Game Jam is joined by Dr. Jennifer Williams, Executive Director of Take Action Global, one of the supporters of the Games for Change Student Challenge theme of Outplay Hunger.
Hunger is a big problem affecting nearly 1 in 10 people worldwide. It’s not just about feeling hungry – it’s also when someone doesn’t have enough food to stay healthy and active. Hunger makes it hard for kids to learn in school. Many children miss classes because their families can’t afford food, or they struggle to focus when their stomachs are empty. You might think hunger happens because there’s not enough food, for example, because of war or natural disasters, but that’s not always true. Often, it’s because food isn’t distributed fairly, some people can’t afford nutritious food, and a lot of good food goes to waste.
