No, actually there's not. Starvation is mostly linked to conflict zones nowadays. In normal conditions starvation is pretty much a problem from the past. Look at the WHO report on poverty and how things have clearly improved since, let's say the 70s or 80s.

Where I live is not a conflict zone, yet there are people who are starving. The monetary system is not coping with rationing the resources to all in a just manner. People don't have jobs. They don't have the capital to put their ideas to action. Those who have done so, still discover that they need money to market their products and services.
