Company Description

Action Against Hunger (Action Contre la Faim) is a global humanitarian organization dedicated to ending world hunger, treating malnutrition, and ensuring communities have access to clean water and sustainable food solutions. Founded in 1979 by a group of French doctors, scientists, and intellectuals, the organization emerged from a determination to eliminate hunger through immediate emergency response and long-term development. Today, it operates a vast international network across more than 50 countries, annually reaching over 20 million people affected by conflict, natural disasters, and systemic poverty.
The organization is internationally recognized for its pioneering scientific innovations in treating acute malnutrition. Action Against Hunger’s scientific experts played a critical role in developing the F100 therapeutic milk formula and championing Ready-to-Use Therapeutic Foods (RUTF), like peanut-based pastes. These revolutionary advancements allowed severely malnourished children to be treated safely at home rather than in crowded hospitals, drastically reducing child mortality rates in crisis zones worldwide.
Beyond emergency medical nutrition, the charity builds lasting resilience through comprehensive Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH) programs and food security initiatives. They construct clean water systems, solar-powered agricultural irrigation, and teach climate-smart farming techniques to vulnerable populations. By providing seeds, tools, and training, alongside establishing Village Savings and Loan Associations (VSLAs), the organization helps communities break the cycle of poverty and become entirely self-sufficient.
