About the product

Hunger and malnutrition are killing nearly six million children each year. The State of Food Insecurity in the World 2005 focuses on the critical importance of hunger reduction, which is the explicit target of the 1996 World Food Summit and of the first Millennium Development Goal, calling for the eradication of extreme poverty and hunger. The report stresses that hunger reduction is also essential for meeting all other MDGs.
