RT @eaPolitics: We have to work on prevention, because all investment in preventive, long-term action, will diminish the cost of supporting people in need later and will be much more efficient. In countries in conflict, it's much more complex, says @harlemdesir, from @RESCUEorg

RT @eaPolitics: .@harlemdesir, from @RESCUEorg, underlines that they need urgent funding and action, without waiting for a declaration of famine. Last time, when the declaration was made in 2011, there were already 250,000 people who had died. They need funding now.

The idea that we should wait until level five of food insecurity – which is famine – before taking action is just terrible.
