This report, planned to be released annually, is about working
through the real-life choices and practical constraints that make
it difficult to address hunger effectively. It is aimed at policy
makers in developing and developed countries, and attempts to fill
an important gap in existing reports on hunger. While other reports
monitor trends towards international goals or serve primarily as
advocacy tools, the World Hunger Series (WHS) focuses on practical
strategies to achieve an end to hunger. It examines themes related
to three types of risks-social and health; markets and trade; and
political and environmental-that perpetuate hunger and stymie
development. Each report in the new series will present
state-of-the-art thinking on that year's theme, combined with an
analysis of the practical challenges to implementing solutions.
Based on this context, the reports will identify realistic steps to
address hunger. This edition of the report examines the
relationship between hunger and learning. It takes a long-term
perspective: what happens at one stage of life affects later
stages, and what happens in one generation affects the next. The
Series has four parts. Part one, the Global Hunger Situation,
surveys the current state of hunger in the world. Part two, Hunger
and Learning, explores the two-way relationship between hunger and
learning through the life cycle. Part three is an Agenda for
Action, identifying concrete interventions to promote hunger
reduction and learning. Finally, part four, a Resource Compendium,
contains technical annexes and supporting data.
