Ending World Hunger: What can the U.S. do?

Wilson Center Event on the Hill

 

The World Health Organization estimates that one-third of the world is well- fed, one-third is under-fed, and one-third is starving. The USDA coordinator of the Obama Administration’s food security initiative and a leading expert on Africa will discuss the factors that contribute to the global food crisis and how the U.S. and the world can address the key issues. A key congressional will provide an update on food security legislation.
