The most fundamental indicator of poverty is the ability to feed oneself, to secure food necessary for basic survival. To eradicate poverty, one must first eradicate hunger. 16 years have passed since the World Food Conference vowed to wipe out hunger worldwide. Yet ensuring that no child, man or woman goes to bed hungry has proven an enterprise of monumental proportion and complexity. This volume is a study of global food security, focused at the household level. The authors illustrate that a micro-economic, grassroots approach, rooted in the self-help capacities of the poor is not only feasible, but a productive means of enhancing food security for all.
