Graca Machel made it very clear at The Economist’s Conference entitled, Feeding the World, that we have been having the same conversation for a very long time. The staggering statistics she quotes in her address are well known and the key question that we need to ask is, “What has been done with this knowledge?”
The Answer quite frankly is, very little. We cannot go about making the same mistakes. Honesty and a new approach are essential in eliminating malnutrition today. If we fail to address these issues here and now, then how do we expect to feed 9 billion people by 2050?
