In your essay, you need to address the following:>

Since its founding in 1961, the World Food Programme (WFP) has been actively involved in addressing hunger and food insecurity worldwide. With the adoption of Sustainable Development Goal 2 (No Hunger), its work has become an even more component of the United Nations’ agenda. By most accounts, the WFP has performed well although in recent years there has been concerns that its ability to maintain its work has become stressed due to various problems. Write an essay that (1) identifies and explains two causes that you feel are most responsible for the global food crisis; (2) explains how the WEFP has addressed these problems; and (3) describes two obstacles or problems facing the WFP in continuing to do so.
