Action Against Hunger

Across the globe, a staggering 150 million children face the harsh reality of inadequate meals and insufficient access to crucial health and nutrition services. Childhood malnutrition, a grave health concern, looms as a potentially fatal threat. 

In this critical battle, the Soneva Foundation works with global humanitarian organisation Action Against Hunger UK to fight hunger and malnutrition. For the past four years, our joint efforts have been concentrated in southern Bangladesh, where we have diligently worked to fortify households’ capabilities for climate-resilient livelihoods, aiming to confront the twin challenges of food insecurity and malnutrition head-on. 

In collaboration with our implementation partner, Action Against Hunger, we have embarked on a transformative journey, equipping families with invaluable skills and essential business acumen. Moreover, we have revolutionised food production dynamics at the grassroots level by introducing innovative, climate change-resistant organic farming techniques. This holistic approach ensures that families not only cultivate nutritious crops within their homesteads but also foster sustainable livelihoods, augmenting income streams. 

To date, we have extended a helping hand to 470 households, catalysing positive transformations in the lives of 2,350 individuals. Below, we present a comprehensive overview of the profound impact generated by our collective endeavours.
