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.” Our partners.
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.
LETTER FROM THE CEO
1
This report highlights the impact of our work to empower the nearly 16 million people reached by our programs across nearly 13,000 communities in 2018.
In nine countries of Africa, through The Hunger Project’s Epicenter Strategy, communities are leading sustainable, women-centered programs, reaching 1.4 million people. These programs are holistic, meaning they address issues across sectors such as food security, health and education. The goal of the strategy is a declaration of accomplishments and self-reliance — meaning they are set up to sustain and further the work begun in partnership with The Hunger Project. In 2018 alone, 11 epicenters — comprising over 142,000 people — celebrated self-reliance. And with Chokwe Epicenter’s declaration of self-reliance in Mozambique at the end of 2018, there were a total of 35 self-reliant epicenters across the continent. The continuing work of these communities post self-reliance is a demonstration of the sustainability of community-led approaches. In India, The Hunger Project partnered with over 40 local organizations to empower 8,000 elected women representatives, each of them champions for gender equality, social and economic development, and nutrition. These women represent 1,900 panchayats (local village councils) in six states and have a reach of more than 10 million people. At the regional level, federations of women leaders participated in workshops to strengthen their voice and provide a platform for peer learning and exchange.
In Bangladesh, The Hunger Project mobilized local volunteer “animators,” women and youth leaders, and local government representatives in 180 unions (clusters of rural villages), whosework reached more than 5 million people in 2018. They carried out holistic, bottom-up strategies to achieve the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals in their communities.
In Mexico and Peru, The Hunger Project supported communities in implementing community-led development initiatives. In 2018, these initiatives reached nearly 25,000 people in 54 isolated, rural communities. Through their work with The Hunger Project, women and men learn how to be active citizens and bring change to their communities.

The first step of every program is community-wide participation in a Vision, Commitment and Action Workshop. Through this workshop, people create their own vision for the future, commit to achieving it and outline actions that are needed to succeed. Each participant leaves the workshop with a specific project for the following three months based entirely on local resources. Through this process, communities also select local leaders, who we call “animators.” Animators are trained to lead more workshops regionally and facilitate the ongoing actions that stem from them.
In achieving this first success, people’s initial inspiration develops into self-confidence and, ultimately, self-reliance.
Confident communities with locally backed leadership and a clear vision of their future are well-positioned to develop and leverage partnerships locally and nationally — partnerships The Hunger Project works to cultivate. These community-driven relations improve the general feeling of personal engagement and yield critical resources — financial and collaborative — that create sustainability.
A clear demonstration of community-led initiatives yielding resources was evident this year in Malawi where the Majete Epicenter animators prioritized a reduction in malarial infection rates as part of their development plan. A study launched in the region by the Dioraphte Foundation made note of the significant malarial reduction in the area and, after a four-year research project, identified The Hunger Project’s unique animator leadership model as a key component to the initiative’s success. Confidence in their own success invigorates and empowers communities. And, concrete results — like those in Majete — demonstrate the measurable impact of Hunger Project programs in a way that instills confidence in high-level investors and partners.
This type of scalable, sustainable success is made possible by our commitment to listening to the changing needs of a community and ensuring they are empowered to successfully complete their own chosen programs of action, with investment in the resources they need to launch and continually improve interventions.

A key to sustainable development is listening. For generations, vulnerable communities have been subject to the whims of top-down development organizations telling people what they “should” do. This has left millions resigned to the “powers that be” when it comes to their own well-being and stuck in a cycle of failed initiatives. Our aim is to overcome this deep resignation through the radical practice of listening first.

6 2018 ANNUAL REPORT
Studies show that when women are empowered, all facets of society change for the better. Families are healthier, more children go to school, agricultural productivity improves and incomes increase. The Hunger Project facilitates communal mindset shifts by asking participants to realize the full potential of their futures when women are equally empowered to be change agents.
This mindset shift is just as much for women and girls as it is for men and boys. Our work addresses generations of entrenched roles and behaviors. Awakening women and girls to the power and right of their voice is a critical step in the process — one powerful way of doing so is demonstrating the collective strength and efficacy of women in leadership.
In India, our #ElectedToLead initiative does just that. This multi-pronged, partnership-driven movement both trains women for political leadership and brings those women together in collaborative spaces. With shared visions and goals, these elected women have engaged in powerful acts of leadership at regional and national levels to address issues of violence against women, child marriage and access to basic services for all, especially the most marginalized.
Meetings of the ALIBHA Federation of Elected Women Leaders in Odisha are a particularly effective demonstration of what’s possible through the #ElectedToLead mobilization. The ALIBHA (meaning “unerasable”) Federation partners with The Hunger Project to bring together more than 2,000 members, representing half of all of Odisha, a state in eastern India. Together these leaders engage in processes that enhanced the individual capacities and skills of elected women to grow into their roles as decision-makers and actively strategize to formally engage local government institutions.
In all of our programs, we prioritize campaigns that spotlight and empower women to enact change, and to widely demonstrate the sustainable impact women have on communities as a way to mobilize clear funding windows for gender-focused, community-led development.

Women and girls bear almost all responsibility for meeting the basic needs of a family, yet they are systematically denied the resources, information and freedom of action they need to fulfill this responsibility — especially in rural communities. This is why our programs, at their core, aim to support women and build their capacity to realize the full potential of their lives.

Some of our most pressing challenges — women’s economic status, maternal and childhood health, or the invisible crisis of malnutrition — can only be solved with integrated strategies at the community level. It is time for development organizations to embrace and foster the power of strategic collaboration, just as our community partners do.
The Hunger Project sees that our highest-leverage role for the end of hunger by 2030 is to build the large-scale partnerships and alliances needed to empower women-centered and community-led rural development everywhere it is needed.
It is in this acknowledgement that The Hunger Project founded and holds the role of Secretariat for the Movement for Community-led Development — a groundbreaking method of cross-organizational collaboration for program implementation and advocacy. The Movement comprises member organizations of all sizes with a publicly demonstrable commitment to community-led development. Together, Movement members are aligned in working to bring civil society and governments into an effective partnership.
Together, Movement members are building implementation alliances with the capacity to take women-centered, community-led development to national scale around the world. We establish formal partnerships with relevant local government systems. We advocate for policies and practices that empower communities to set their own vision and priorities, to build local capacity and to work together to achieve them.
Truly sustainable development happens in communities. Every human has a fundamental right to a voice in the decisions that affect their lives, and to equal and affordable access to the services through which they can achieve their full potential. Yet, it will take more than organizations operating in silos to realize that potential. Strategic partners at all levels of government and civil society must work together to take community-led development to a “transformative scale” — beyond small sector-based projects, to a level that transforms society.
WE’RE TAKING

DEVELOPMENT
TO A SCALE THAT
