  • The Hunger Project Annual Report
    THE HUNGER PROJECT 2018 ANNUAL REPORT LETTER FROM THE CEO At the heart of our work is partnership. In partnership, there is equality. There is mutual understanding and a commitment to listening. There is shared investment in outcomes. There is also deep vulnerability as well as indomitable strength. It is in this spirit that we in The Hunger Project refer to the 16 million women, men and children with whom we work in Africa, South Asia and Latin America as our “partners.” Not as “recipients” or “beneficiaries.” Ourpartners. At all levels of our organization, we listen to the voices of community members first. It is they who are living every day in conditions of hunger and poverty and are, therefore, best poised to know what’s actually needed for sustainable change. And it doesn’t stop with us. We ask all of our organizational, civic and government partners to hold to this very same standard of partnership. We have a job to do: it’s the beautiful, hard, messy, glorious work of changing the world. And, in such times, it is vital to remember that we’re not alone. This year, I am thrilled to announce one such bold commitment to partnership. Working closely to build on each other’s strengths, The Hunger Project, Heifer International and Restless Development have launched an initiative together in Zambia. This work is being done within the framework of a scaled strategy to achieve the end of hunger throughout the country. The collaboration is a major win for the end of hunger as we expand our approach into a new country and demonstrate the power of transformative programs in a new era of partnership! In gratitude for your partnership, AT THE HEART OF THE WORK WE DO IS PARTNERSHIP.

  • The Women's Empowerment Index
    THE WOMEN’S EMPOWERMENT INDEX Context Overcoming gender inequality is critical to achieving the end of hunger. Women often bear the responsibility for meeting the needs of their family; yet they are frequently denied the resources, information and freedom of action to fulfill this responsibility. Studies show that when women are empowered, all of society benefits. Women’s empowerment is an essential component of The Hunger Project’s programs. Challenge To assess impact and review performance in The Hunger Project’s women’s empowerment programming, we sought to identify and adopt a standard, recognized approach. Yet, while women’s empowerment is a mainstay feature for many international organizations’ programs and practices, a standard, collective approach for tracking progress is still missing. This is a significant gap given the importance of gender equity to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). ABOUT THE HUNGER PROJECT The Hunger Project has a 39-year track record of partnering with people living in poverty as they work to end their own chronic hunger. Our approach is Approach based on three fundamental pillars: (1) Mobilize To fill this measurement gap, The Hunger Project created the custom people at the grassroots level, (2) Empower women Women’s Empowerment Index (WEI), which builds on the International as key change agents of their own development, and Food Policy Research Institute’s Women’s Empowerment in (3) Forge partnerships with local government. Our Agriculture Index alongside extensive internal testing. The WEI, tailored work reaches 18.1 million people in nearly 20,000 to meet the unique needs of The Hunger Project’s programs, allows a communities in Africa, South Asia and Latin America.

  • THP's Response to 'Taught How to Fish'1 This
    THP’s response to ‘Taught how to fish’1 This evaluation was conducted in the spring of 2018, and the final report was presented in July 2018. In September 2018, Suzanne Hoeksema and Annelies Kanis of THP Netherlands travelled to Malawi to discuss the outcome with the entire team involved in Majete 1-5. Alfred Dzilankhulani, one of the evaluators, was also present. As always with good evaluations, some of the findings were already known, had been thought about and were already acted upon when we visited. Also some of the findings were explained further by Alfred and reflected upon by the team, leading sometimes to suggestions for changes in the final report. (We were offered a chance to provide input and factual corrections to the report before it was finalised, but this group discussion could only be planned in September, meaning that not all input was delivered in time for the final version.) In this annex, we have listed both the follow up to recommendations and given some comments on the findings. We follow the sequence of the report. The requests for factual changes will be passed on to the evaluators. Recommendations to THP (page iv) 1. Improve the efficiency of monitoring and evaluation. This for us, is the biggest take away from this evaluation. Discussions on M&E within THP about our M&E system have been going on since early 2018 and this report confirms that we need to have a new look at what we measure, why and how. We have taken up a paragraph in our new proposal about doing so in 2019.
