摘要:FAO’S LATEST ESTIMATES signal a
setback in the war against hunger.
The number of chronically hungry
people in developing countries declined
by only 19 million between the World Food
Summit (WFS) baseline period of 1990–
1992 and 1999–2001. This means that the
WFS goal of reducing the number of
undernourished people by half by the year
2015 can now be reached only if annual
reductions can be accelerated to 26 million
per year, more than 12 times the pace of
2.1 million per year achieved to date.
