The Hunger Banquet allows participants to experience the inequalities in our world, the disproportion of food, wealth and resources and how our decisions affect others. Guests draw a ticket at random that assign them to either a high, middle, or low-income tier, based on the statistics about the number of people living in poverty in the world. Each income level has a corresponding story and meal (of differing portions).
