Rafiqul Islam Azad reports on an international workshop about hunger:
Speakers at an international workshop in Chennai, India [last Monday] stressed the need for formulating an strategy at aggregate level to ensure food security across the globe.
The four-day workshop on “Food Insecurity: A Great Threat to Human Security”, organised jointly by International Student Young Pugwash (ISYP) and MS Swaminathan Research Foundation (MSSRF) was inaugurated by ISYP President Prof MS Swaminathan.
Over one hundred experts, researchers, academicians, agriculturists, lawyers, journalists, government officials and representatives from donor agencies and NGOs are taking part in the workshop.
It makes me glad to hear the workshop, even though I could not attend. Nonetheless, I hope we do more than just talk about the problem. I hope we also carry out a plan to end world hunger.
