Union Against Hunger: Ending the Crisis of Mass Hunger in South Africa

Loading player...
South Africa produces enough food to feed its population, yet millions go hungry every day—including nine million children. The Union Against Hunger (UAH) is a new movement fighting to end this crisis by advocating for policy change, food redistribution, and urgent action to protect everyone’s right to adequate nutrition.

In this episode, Dr Busiso Moyo, Secretariat member of UAH, joins Samm Marshall to discuss:
✅ Why hunger remains a crisis in South Africa
✅ The impact of child malnutrition and stunting
✅ How UAH is driving systemic change and food justice
✅ What individuals, businesses, and government must do to end hunger for good

Hunger is not just a challenge—it’s an outrage. Tune in to learn how we can fight for a food-secure future together.
