&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;On what indicators is the GHI computed? Why did the Ministry of Women and Child Development reject the report and call it &amp;lsquo;an erroneous measure of hunger&amp;rsquo;? Why are child-centric metrics used to calculate global hunger?&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The story so far: For the second time in two years, the Ministry of Women and Child Development on Saturday rejected the Global Hunger Index (GHI) that ranked India 107 among 121 countries. India was accorded a score of 29.1 out of 100 (with 0 representing no hunger), placing it behind Sri Lanka (66), Myanmar (71), Nepal (81) and Bangladesh (84). It referred to the index as &amp;ldquo;an erroneous measure of hunger&amp;rdquo;. It also wrongly claimed that the Index relied on an opinion poll.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;What is the Global Hunger Index?&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The GHI, is a peer-reviewed annual report that endeavours to &amp;ldquo;comprehensively measure and track hunger at the global, regional, and country levels&amp;rdquo;. It is jointly-produced by the Germany-based not-for-profit organisation Welthungerhilfe and Ireland-based Concern Worldwide. Authors of the report primarily refer to the United Nations&amp;rsquo; Sustainable Development Goal 2 (SDG 2) that endeavours to achieve &amp;lsquo;Zero Hunger&amp;rsquo; by 2030. According to them, the report attempts to &amp;ldquo;raise awareness and understanding of the struggle against hunger&amp;rdquo;. The inaugural report was first published in 2006. The 2022 report is its 17th edition.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The GHI score is computed using four broad indicators &amp;mdash; undernourishment (measure of the proportion of the population facing chronic deficiency of dietary energy intake), child stunting (low height for age), child wasting (low weight for height) and child mortality (death of a child under the age of five).&lt;/p&gt;

India was accorded a score of 29.1 out of 100 (with 0 representing no hunger), placing it behind Sri Lanka (66), Myanmar (71), Nepal (81) and Bangladesh (84). It referred to the index as &amp;ldquo;an erroneous measure of hunger&amp;rdquo;.

It is jointly-produced by the Germany-based not-for-profit organisation Welthungerhilfe and Ireland-based Concern Worldwide. Authors of the report primarily refer to the United Nations&amp;rsquo; Sustainable Development Goal 2 (SDG 2) that endeavours to achieve &amp;lsquo;Zero Hunger&amp;rsquo; by 2030. According to them, the report attempts to &amp;ldquo;raise awareness and understanding of the struggle against hunger&amp;rdquo;. The inaugural report was first published in 2006. The 2022 report is its 17th edition.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The GHI score is computed using four broad indicators &amp;mdash; undernourishment (measure of the proportion of the population facing chronic deficiency of dietary energy intake), child stunting (low height for age), child wasting (low weight for height) and child mortality (death of a child under the age of five).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Please &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.thehindu.com/news/national/explained-understanding-the-global-hunger-index/article66019051.ece?homepage=true&quot; title=&quot;https://www.thehindu.com/news/national/explained-understanding-the-global-hunger-index/article66019051.ece?homepage=true&quot;&gt;click here&lt;/a&gt; to read more.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&#039;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;On what indicators is the GHI computed? Why did the Ministry of Women and Child Development reject the report and call it &amp;lsquo;an erroneous measure of hunger&amp;rsquo;? Why are child-centric metrics used to calculate global hunger?&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The story so far: For the second time in two years, the Ministry of Women and Child Development on Saturday rejected the Global Hunger Index (GHI) that ranked India 107 among 121 countries. India was accorded a score of 29.1 out of 100 (with 0 representing no hunger), placing it behind Sri Lanka (66), Myanmar (71), Nepal (81) and Bangladesh (84). It referred to the index as &amp;ldquo;an erroneous measure of hunger&amp;rdquo;. It also wrongly claimed that the Index relied on an opinion poll.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;What is the Global Hunger Index?&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The GHI, is a peer-reviewed annual report that endeavours to &amp;ldquo;comprehensively measure and track hunger at the global, regional, and country levels&amp;rdquo;. It is jointly-produced by the Germany-based not-for-profit organisation Welthungerhilfe and Ireland-based Concern Worldwide. Authors of the report primarily refer to the United Nations&amp;rsquo; Sustainable Development Goal 2 (SDG 2) that endeavours to achieve &amp;lsquo;Zero Hunger&amp;rsquo; by 2030. According to them, the report attempts to &amp;ldquo;raise awareness and understanding of the struggle against hunger&amp;rdquo;. The inaugural report was first published in 2006. The 2022 report is its 17th edition.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The GHI score is computed using four broad indicators &amp;mdash; undernourishment (measure of the proportion of the population facing chronic deficiency of dietary energy intake), child stunting (low height for age), child wasting (low weight for height) and child mortality (death of a child under the age of five).&lt;/p&gt;

Explained: Understanding the Global Hunger Index -Saptaparno Ghosh

-The Hindu On what indicators is the GHI computed? Why did the Ministry of Women and Child Development reject the report and call it ‘an erroneous measure of hunger’? Why are child-centric metrics used to calculate global hunger? The story so far: For the second time in two years, the Ministry of Women and Child Development on Saturday rejected the Global Hunger Index (GHI) that ranked India 107 among 121 countries. India was accorded a score of 29.1 out of 100 (with 0 representing no hunger), placing it behind Sri Lanka (66), Myanmar (71), Nepal (81) and Bangladesh (84). It referred to the index as “an erroneous measure of hunger”. It also wrongly claimed that the Index relied on an opinion poll. What is the Global Hunger Index? The GHI, is a peer-reviewed annual report that endeavours to “comprehensively measure and track hunger at the global, regional, and country levels”. It is jointly-produced by the Germany-based not-for-profit organisation Welthungerhilfe and Ireland-based Concern Worldwide. Authors of the report primarily refer to the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goal 2 (SDG 2) that endeavours to achieve ‘Zero Hunger’ by 2030. According to them, the report attempts to “raise awareness and understanding of the struggle against hunger”. The inaugural report was first published in 2006. The 2022 report is its 17th edition. The GHI score is computed using four broad indicators — undernourishment (measure of the proportion of the population facing chronic deficiency of dietary energy intake), child stunting (low height for age), child wasting (low weight for height) and child mortality (death of a child under the age of five).
