The State of Food Insecurity 2008-full text

The State of Food Insecurity 2008
High food prices
and food security – threats and opportunities

Foreword

Millions more food-insecure – urgent action and substantial investments needed
World hunger is increasing. The World Food Summit (WFS) goal of halving the number of undernourished people in the world by 2015 is becoming more difficult to reach for many countries. FAO’s most recent estimates put the number of hungry people at 923 million in 2007, an increase of more than 80 million since the 1990–92 base period. Long-term estimates (available up to 2003–05) show that some countries were well on track towards reaching the WFS and Millennium Development Goal (MDG) targets before the period of high food prices; however, even these countries may have suffered setbacks.
