Food Security

The world has a serious problem on its hands – that of how to feed its rapidly growing population. As Save the Children point out in the article on page 15, there are plenty of children who are already suffering as a result of a lack of access to nutritional food stuffs.

We also discuss some of the policy changes that are needed to ensure no one goes hungry.
