Research organisation Oxfam warns that around 12 000 people per day could die from covid-19 linked hunger by the end of the year, this potentially more than the damage the disease itself can cause. This is as a lot of economies around the world take a knock because of the covid-19 lockdowns.

To help us unpack all these we are joined by• Mthandazo Ndlovu HlalaProgramme Manager OXFAM• Lola Castro Regional Director: Southern AfricaWorld Food Program • Prof Julian May Director Centre of Excellence in Food Security (UWC)
