About the Book:
Each year the global population increases about 1% and we grow enough food globally to feed everyone. So why are 2.3 billion people, or nearly 28% of the global population hungry and malnourished?
The Institute for Food and Development Policy, or Food First, exists to address the underlying causes of global hunger and poverty. We appeal to governments and businesses to adopt solutions that make food more affordable and accessible.
But lasting change is built from the ground up. We believe listening to and learning from the wisdom of local communities is the best way to build sustainable food systems that prioritize people over corporate profits.
