We must listen to the United Nations, this is a desperate and dire situation. We are all citizens of this world and have a global responsibility to each other.
We need more funding/ resources to tackle this inadmissible situation.
This is not a political battle, this concerns the lives of millions, whatever your views, we cannot allow starvation to continue.
