An Organization Guide for Education and Advocacy

is dedicated to the women, men, and youth in these and similar organizations who persist with hope and courage despite adversity and against the odds to build a world for all people where human dignity is liberated, human community, fulfilled and a wounded Creation, healed.

i ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

Many people have helped World Hunger Education Service bring this new edition of Who's Involved With Hunger to light.

Students Melanie Kim from George Washington University and Sara Lowden from the University of Maine carried out e major share of the new research on nongovernmental organizations. International Voluntary Services under executive director Linda Worthington, a long-time WHES Associate who edited the third edition in 1982, sponsored Ms. Kim's work. Ms. Lowden was sponsored by the University of Maine School of Social Work under the direction of William H. Whitaker, also a World Hunger Education Service Associate. John Moore assisted with research for the United Nations section.

Dr. Whitaker's suggestions significantly strengthened the section dealing with U.S. hunger and poverty, both as to substance and arrangement. Valuable guidance came also from Mary Ellen Lloyd, director of the Domestic Hunger and Poverty Working Group of the National Council of Churches from 1978 to 1990 and author of Ecumenical Domestic Hunger Project Network and It's Time to ShoutllHistory of the Program on Domestic Hunger and Poverty 1975-1990.

In the federal agency section we are indebted to Neal Peterson at the Economic Research Service of the U.S. Department of Agriculture and to WHES Associate Antonio Gayoso at the U.S. Agency for International Development for their help with the bureaucracies of those agencies, particularly regarding USAID because of its administrative restructuring in 1991.

Linda Coffin, owner of PageCrafters in Minneapolis and another WHES Associate, skillfully met our "due last month" layout deadline without losing her sense of humor.

Thanks are due also to the 420 organizations included here for patiently supplying the information requested. The editor takes sole responsibility throughout for the selection of information and the accuracy of reporting, hoping that the errors inevitable in so much detail prove not to be unduly dire or numerous. An organization's inclusion does not imply endorsement, nor does omission imply lack of significance. This must be emphasized. Rather, unfortunate omissions are acknow- ledged as a consequence of balancing broad representation of the many, approaches to issues of hunger and poverty with the practical limitations of space.

Finally, great appreciation for the very possibility of producing at last a new edition of Who's Involved With Hunger after a seven years' hiatus is due to the fifth edition sponsors who provided essential funding (an asterisk marks WHES Associates): CODEL, the World Hunger Committee of the Iowa Methodist Board of Global Ministries, the Episcopal Presiding Bishop's Fund for World Relief, *Michael and Jeanette Altamura, *Mamice Boyd, *Rev. Lowell Glendon, the Mennonite Central Committee, World Hunger Year, *Phillipp Hesser, Christian Children's Fund, Freedom From Hunger, *Jean M. Wilson, Goose Creek Friends Meeting, *James and Marjorie Akins, *Helen and Ferris Owen, PACT, Catholic Relief Services, Nationwide Insurance, Edward Hawkins, *Nancy Folger, *Billie A. Day, CARE, Peace Committee of the Friends Meeting of Washington, Marshall Matz, Don and Barbara Reeves, the Food Research and Action Center, Kathlin Smith, and-the West Ohio Conference of the United Methodist Church.

I PREFACE: HOW TO USE THIS BOOK

Who is involved with hunger? Actually, anyone doing anything that affects someone's livelihood and access to food. That's a very broad statement but true. Public policy? Inevitably and always, it's either part of the problem or part of the solution. The status of human rights? Again, part of the solution or part of the problem. Food production, processing, distribution? Obviously relevant. Unemployment and underemployment versus full employment and decent income? Inherently hunger issues. Access to land and other productive assets? There can hardly be a more fundamental livelihood issue. Corporate accountability to local communities? Another fundamental livelihood issue. Sustainable use of natural resources versus exploitive abuse? Clearly germane to a sustainable world food supply as well as to sustainable livelihoods. Population growth? Critical in both the employment question and sustainable use of natural resources. The status of children? Hunger hurtseven killschildren most of all. The status of women? Profoundly influences, and is affected by, all of the above.

Now: How to use this book. Are you looking for a grant? You won't find it through this book, although some of the organizations here might have some tips. Better still, get some pointers from the Foundation Center in New York City, San Frarcisco, or Washington, D.C. Do you want to volunteer in Africa or Appalachia? This book alone won't tell you how, but a few organizations in it do use qualified volunteers and at least two--Global Exchange and Institute for Food and Development Policy--publish books about volunteer opportunities. Are you a job seeker? Career counselors in colleges and universities find Who's Involved With Hunger useful in the field of international development, agricultural economics, social change, political advocacy and a raft of related possiblities, and they should know (even though that isn't its intended purpose). Are you a teacher or college instructor? And are you looking for materials you can use to teach about developing countries, hunger, sustainable agriculture, economic alternatives, etc.? Good! This book is for you. Are you (or would you like to be) an activist? And are you looking for training in food and poverty-related social change, community development, or political advocacy, or for technical assistance, or for colleagues with whom to brainstorm about strategies or form a coalition? Good! This book is definitely for you. Are you a policy-oriented researcher? And is your topic related to food policy, poverty elimination, global interdependence, a developing region, etc., because you are a college student, a journalist, assisting a member of congress, or for any other reason whatsoever? Good! This book is for you, too. Are you trying to find out "what's going on out there" among activist researchers, practitioners, and policy advocates? Because (a) your boss needs to know and expects you to find out or (b) you want to know for your own sake? Good! You're starting in the right place.

There are two ways to proceed: One way is to scan the table of contents and then begin to browse in the section that seems most likely to serve your purpose. This method is for someone who is looking for a certain kind of action (research? public information? legislative advocacy? group organizing? direct assistance?) or a certain kind of information (research report? newsletter? video? for a general audience? for a third grade class?) and wants it from a certain kind of organization (U.N. agency? U.S. government agency? religious denomination? citizens' organization? national? local? in Canada?). The other way to proceed is to check the index. This is the method for someone who already knows the name of an organization she/he wants to find and who doesn't want to spend much time browsing to find it. Incidentally, this second method will work only if the organization in question is nongovernmental and only if it operates at the national or international level. Local U.S. organizations are not indexed; look for them by state in the last section of the book. U.S. federal agencies and congressional committees are easy to find by alphabetical listing alone, but locating a particular U.N. or other inter-governmental agency takes imagination. These are divided into groups according to focus; start with the introduction to the U.N. section. No matter how you plan to use this book, one final word of advice: Browse a lot. Scan all sections of the book, including ones you don't expect to be useful. Interesting and surprising connections are guaranteed.
