Action Against Hunger / Action
Contre la Faim (ACF) was
founded in France in 1979 among
other “second generation”
humanitarian organisations
— agencies seeking a brand of
humanitarian politics that could
influence political actors and
outcomes, not just mitigate
atrocities on the ground.
The resulting organisational shift revolutionized how
humanitarian professionals responded to international
crises and interacted with key actors, institutions, and
agencies.
Action Against Hunger’s founding took this evolution
even further. While hunger had been addressed in general
campaigns against poverty and poor public health, Action
Against Hunger was established specifically to combat
hunger worldwide, leading the way in defining the terrain,
developing appropriate strategies, conducting vital field
research, and delivering life-saving programs.
ACF International envisions a world without hunger and
collaborates closely in sharing human resources, logistics,
and technical capacity. As a non-governmental, non-profit,
non-religious organisation, our International Network is
committed to principled humanitarian action as outlined
in our International Charter of Principles: Independence,
Neutrality, Non-Discrimination, Free and Direct Access to
Victims, Professionalism, and Transparency.

M essage from the B oard Chair and E xecutive Director
We don’t often hear about children
starving to death in Canada.
In many other places around the world, they continue to go
without food.
This unfortunate reality makes your compassion and
support for Action Against Hunger essential.
Your support helped us provide assistance in 49 countries in 2014, including responding to Ebola in West Africa,
caring for refugees fleeing war in Syria, and assisting victims of Typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines.
Thanks to your generosity, Action Against Hunger aided
13.6 million people in 2014.
In Iraq, you helped us provide food aid to about 180,000
people, representing almost one fifth of the total displaced
population of Kurdistan.
In South Sudan, your commitment to eliminating hunger and disease ensured Action Against Hunger field staff
could quickly respond to a cholera outbreak.
Action Against Hunger facilitated positive change and
saved lives in every country we worked in, thanks to you.
We also saw change in our Canadian headquarters in
Toronto, saying farewell to Susanne Courtney and welcoming a new Executive Director, Danny Glenwright, in August
2015. Action Against Hunger Canada’s Board and staff
thank Susanne for her achievements.
Your support and investment ensures we can continue
to accomplish the crucial work of saving lives. Ongoing
global instability makes it more important than ever. Thank
you for believing that no child should ever go hungry.

Last year was a big year in the
global fight against hunger. From
the release of the Global Nutrition
Report, providing a new picture
of global- and country-level
progress in all forms of nutrition,
to the declaration of a Decade of
Action on Nutrition in the Second
International Conference on
Nutrition (ICN2), we are better
positioned to create real change,
thanks to your support.

The Chaco region is one of the most
vulnerable regions in Paraguay,
experiencing recurrent droughts
and a lack of adequate water
collection systems. With your
support, especially from World
Food Day Montreal, Action Against
Hunger constructed four 20,000litre cisterns to collect rain water.
These structures will provide a
permanent solution for 2,845
people that suffer from acute water
shortages, and enable the growth of
an independent, healthy community.
This learning by
doing will also allow
that trained people
can eventually be
contracted for the
installation of these
works, as well as
they will become as

One of the strongest storms ever
recorded, Typhoon Haiyan (also
known as Yolanda) left 14 million
people in need of aid — including
four million who lost their homes.
With your support, Action Against
Hunger responded immediately,
helping families rebuild their lives.
In 2014, your generosity allowed
us to help 853,055 people stand
on their own two feet again. Total
raised by ACF Canada for Philippines
(2013-2014): $153,911. The Canadian
government announced support for
ACF’s response in April 2014. DFATD
committed $3.75 million for disaster
relief and recovery programs.

B attling Ebola i n Sierra Leone Hygiene kits and knowledge help
eliminate Ebola in Freetown
Officials declared the first positive case of Ebola in
Freetown, the capital of Sierra Leone, in August 2014.
The number of positive cases rapidly increased, leading the Western Area urban district, where Freetown is
located, to become the most-infected district, soon reporting 26% of all infections. Congestion and poor hygienic
conditions facilitated this rapid spread, particularly in the
city’s slum areas.
Thanks to your support, Action Against Hunger was

able to respond to the needs of the most vulnerable
during the peak of the emergency — this included raising awareness and providing hygiene kits to quarantined
communities to prevent Ebola transmission.
Sheku, an artist who lives in the slum community of
Rokupa in Freetown, benefitted from your support. “My
family and the others living in this area were vulnerable
to diseases because our community did not know how
to protect ourselves, especially when it came to Ebola,”
he said. “Access to safe drinking water in my community
was already a problem before the outbreak . . . a good number of households had no access to it. Two of my family
members died and the living conditions became worse.
Our lives halted when Ebola hit.”
Hand-washing is paramount to prevent the disease, but

a concern before the outbreak started and deteriorated
once the outbreak began.
Ebola also disrupted the livelihoods of many people, in
particular because of emergency measures like quarantines and market bans. Following 21 days of quarantine,
thanks to Action Against Hunger’s social mobilization
activities and the provision of hygiene kits, no one else
became infected in the area where Sheku lives.
“In the last four months since I actively joined the
campaign against Ebola, the hygiene conditions in my
community have improved greatly,” said Sheku. “My
community now has widespread knowledge on hygiene
practices and disease prevention through a number of
sensitizations and trainings on Ebola prevention.”
Sheku’s community is now Ebola-free, but the fight
against Ebola continues, leaving no space for complacency.

helped thousands recover
from Typhoon Haiyan
With the support of the Government of Canada as well as
our generous donors, Action Against Hunger helped hundreds of thousands of survivors in the wake of the deadly
Typhoon Haiyan that struck the Philippines.
Action Against Hunger has been working in the Philippines since 2000, so our teams were uniquely positioned
to arrive on the crisis scene within hours of the storm.
In the typhoon’s immediate aftermath, your support
helped Action Against Hunger deliver nearly six tonnes
of emergency food provisions to some of the worst-hit,
remote regions.
From her small savings as a rice cake hawker in her
village of Aspera in Iloilo province, Cindy bought shelter
kits to temporarily fix the family home, destroyed by
the typhoon.

A Calgary pre-kindergarten school
turned an art project into a creative
way to make a difference
At the end of 2014, the 2000 days Pre-Kindergarten
school in Calgary decided to combine their art project
with their community engagement work. Each class
worked together on one piece of art, which they then sold
at an auction to parents. The team also used images of
each piece of art to make a 2015 calendar.
Owner and teacher Marlene Kepka organized the fundraising event.
“The children really enjoyed participating and making
their art pieces and the parents were really impressed and
supported the idea,” she said. “Parents who had bid for a
canvas and did not win said that they were glad that the
art was in the calendar. It was also great to see how the
children came together to create their art piece based
on the month they were assigned and then to see it auctioned during our Winter Festival. I was proud of our chil-

At Action Against Hunger, we believe in the power of
sharing food.
Entering its second year as a fixture in the Action
Against Hunger Canada calendar, Love Food Give Food
brings together a growing and eclectic group of restaurants, cafes and other food providers to raise funds for
the fight against world hunger.
Each participating restaurant donated at least $1 from
at least one menu item for one month, helping raise hundreds of dollars for Action Against Hunger’s work.
Love Food Fest also debuted in 2014 at Wychwood
Barns, rallying some of Toronto’s brightest chefs to cook
up interpretations of childhood classics in an effort to
end childhood malnutrition. Guests were treated to an
array of tasty creations while supporting a serious cause.
Thank you to our restaurant partners, sponsors, chefs,
and guests for making Love Food Fest and Love Food Give

What is SMART?
SMART (Standardized Monitoring and Assessment of
Relief and Transitions) is a standardised, simplified household-level survey methodology that provides representative and accurate malnutrition and mortality data for
effective decision-making and resource allocation.
Since 2009, Action Against Hunger Canada has served
as the project convener for SMART. Today it is the lead
agency serving as a technical resource for building capacity and providing technical survey support in SMART.
What is Emergency Survey
Support (ESS)?
During humanitarian crises, the response capacity of governments, UN agencies, and international NGOs may be
compromised as they struggle to find adequate technical and human resources to meet urgent survey needs.
Thanks to your support, in order to respond to these
survey challenges, the SMART team at Action Against
Hunger Canada provides partners with short-term technical expertise during humanitarian crises or high-risk nutrition situations with an absence of reliable data.
In 2014, your support allowed Action Against Hunger
to work closely with South Sudan’s Nutrition Information
Working Group (NIWG) during the crisis in that country
and enabled its members to play a meaningful role in prioritizing survey areas, critically reviewing survey protocols and technically assessing the validity and accuracy
of survey data.

New methodology helped ACF collect
accurate data during ongoing conflict
Since declaring independence in 2011, South Sudan has
suffered ongoing internal conflict. With an increase in violence at the end of 2013, tens of thousands people have
been killed and nearly 1.5 million people have been forced
to flee their homes.
The challenges of this context cannot be overstated.
A staggering 40 percent of the population —4.6 million
people – are at risk of severe food shortages, and one
million people are living in a state of emergency just one
step below famine.
In 2014, with funding from UNICEF and technical support from the United States Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC), Action Against Hunger used a newly-formalised methodology, known as Emergency Survey

Action Against Hunger’s Surveillance and Evaluation
Team traveled to some of the most remote areas of South
Sudan to collect nutrition data using the SMART methodology in order to know where to respond and where to
concentrate supplies among areas with limited access or
high insecurity.
In a Rapid SMART survey, data on age, sex, weight,
height, bilateral oedema, and mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC) is collected. This information is key to determine where children have the highest prevalence of malnutrition, providing information necessary to save lives.
Alina Michalska, the SMART Program Manager at Action Against Hunger explains, “the data collected through
these surveys in South Sudan helped determine where
children had the highest prevalence of malnutrition and
also informed the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) analysis in South Sudan. This allowed the
humanitarian community to provide and evaluate the effectiveness of life-saving interventions”.
At the same time that Rapid SMART data was being
collected in South Sudan, Action Against Hunger also supported the South Sudan Nutrition Information Working
Group (NIWG), a technical sub-group of the Nutrition

Cluster. “We worked with the NIWG to help build the capacity of over 50 individuals in SMART, enabling them to
design and undertake nutrition surveys”, Alina continues.
The results from nutrition surveillance in South Sudan
were among the highest quality of all the surveys reviewed by the NIWG together with the CDC and Action
Against Hunger SMART experts. The NIWG is now recognised as the established coordination body playing a
key role in providing timely technical support to all partners in nutrition surveys, allowing for up-to-date information for accurate programmatic decision making.
Accurate and reliable data is crucial for effective decision making and resource allocation, particularly during
an emergency.
