Millennium Fellowship Project: The Hunger Games
This project is basically about food inequality. we know that food plays a vital role in human beings, living beings. food is the basic input for survival. It brings nourishment, joy, comfort, healthiness so on. The availability of food is often tied to economic resources, with those in positions of privilege and power enjoying greater access to high-quality, nutritious options. Those in a lower position have lower access to high-quality, nutritious food, in most cases no food at all, striving for a one-time meal. Due to malnutrition, there is a decline in famine and death by starvation. My project aims to help the people suffering from chronic hunger, feed the starving people who are a large segment of the population, and find a way, a resolution to the hunger where privileged ones are wasting lots of food on the other side. In addition to this, establish an organization, or else we can say a Helping Centre to feed empty stomachs and boost their life, providing them with nutritious, healthy food that they could ever dream of!
