It’s the time of year for major reports, I guess. Here’s what’s on the table:
- HLPE. 2017. Nutrition and food systems. A report by the High Level Panel of Experts on Food Security and Nutrition of the Committee on World Food Security, Rome.
- FAO. 2017. The State of Food and Agriculture 2017 — Leveraging food systems for inclusive rural transformation. FAO, Rome.
- IPES-Food. 2017. Unravelling the Food–Health Nexus: Addressing practices, political economy, and power relations to build healthier food systems. The Global Alliance for the Future of Food and IPES-Food.
You can follow the discussion on all these and more on the webcast of the 44th session of the Committee on World Food Security.
Maybe we should just have stayed hunters and gatherers?
on the q if we should stayed hunters and gathers, I recommend to read ‘Sapiens’ by Yuval Noah Harari, for those who haven’t done so already. His view on the case: if we had stayed hunters and gathers we would have lived on a much healthier diet, with a much healthier life style, but (there is always a ‘but’) a lot shorter :)
I forgot to add the link which prompted the question.
