Title: | Sustainable Agriculture: A Way Out of Food Poverty |
Other Titles: | Agricultura Sustentável: Uma Forma de Escapar da Pobreza Alimentar |
Authors: | Altangerel, Tuya Henao, Fernando |
Abstract: | The most fundamental human right is the right to food (UN General Assembly, 2002). Proper nutritious food is the precondition for normal human development. Well-nourished children are more likely to succeed in learning and are less susceptible to diseases. But low-income, food-importing economies are facing increasing difficulties in accessing staple food items. Chronic food insecurity persists, especially in Sub-Saharan Africa. The recent economic crisis drove more than 100 million people into hunger in 2008 alone. Is sustainable agriculture a solution? O direito humano mais fundamental é o direito à alimentação (Assembléia Geral da ONU, 2002). |
