Hi Donuts, About your sentences, both are in common usage and sound natural to a native speaker. " carries the implication of on the topic or subject of the famine, so it is fine to say. Welcome to the board!

Hi Donuts,

About your sentences, both are in common usage and sound natural to a native speaker. The latter, "on the famine...etc." carries the implication of on the topic or subject of the famine, so it is fine to say.

I would if I were writing it in any kind of formal context, such as a resume or letter for a fellowship, etc. In conversation or casual writing, either is fine.

And, you are welcome!
