Mahbub ul Haq Human Development Centre's 2010-2011 Report on Food
Security in South Asia is a valuable contribution towards the
conceptual and empirical analysis of food security in South Asia.
It analyses the issues of availability and access to food for all
South Asians, especially the poor. Ensuring adequate food at
affordable prices to all people at all times is the duty of each
government. The high prices of food and fuel and economic crisis of
recent years have put half a billion South Asians in poverty,
millions of children out of school and into work, and over 300
millions of South Asians malnourished. The Report presents critical
analyses of food production, distribution, and access for three
South Asian countries, India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh. The Report
also assesses food security from the perspectives of women and
climate change. The Report critically reviews the public food
distribution system and social safety net programmes. The Report
argues that to give economic growth a human face, South Asia needs
to seriously address the effectiveness of its food security
initiatives. The objective of all development programmes must be
the people and their wellbeing, and food security is the main
lifeline of the people.
