FAMINE | Charcoal Drawing

Africa is one of the poorest countries in the world. African people are severely economically minimized, most of the people are malnourished or undernutrition, lived in untidy and informal places, eating dirt for survival.

There is a huge scarcity of food in Africa due to agricultural conditions such as crop failure caused by the variations of weather. Extreme cases of famine is significantly increasing.

Africa is the most affected country where its people lack basic needs such as foods for survival, this situation leads to starvation and death. Many people died in Africa because of hunger, most of them were too thin and too weak to stand and walk because of weakened immune systems, their bodies are highly susceptible to diseases that would become fatal and critical if untreated. In other cases, famine African people especially their children are very prone to this cases, suffered the devastating effects of starvation and leads to premature deaths, in worst cases, eaten by large carnivorous birds!

This widespread food shortage must aided together with the help of developing countries, lending assistance and support to help them recover.

I picked this topic because I wanted share this to everyone, to help raise awareness of the crises, to help people in Africa to return to their normal state. I’ve drawn this kind of picture because it symbolizes the people in Africa and their living conditions. I am very touched to this situation especially to young and innocent children.
