Task of making hunger history-MDG1
Where are we?
Much better since the MDGs, but far from
making hunger history
Where are we going?
Hunger on a global scale will disappear,
in 2 or 3 more 15y plans. New initiatives
What’s working, what’s not?
Only 5-10 nations of 23 will reach 0.7% of
3
GDP. None will forgo unfair trade rules
Aid isn’t working
Profit motive hasn’t
Trade for profit instead
worked - aid is needed
Trillions wasted! - 1 b still starving
Population outstrips food supply
Most aid corrupt dictators
MDGs won’t be achieved
V little is wasted
Malthus is wrong
Corrupt multinationals
Broken promises
Never promised 0.7% and anyway …
… we give more than anyone!
“Trade not aid”

2008 recession
You did so!
½ what EU gives!
Trade barriers. Fair trade & aid
“They” didn’t cause it

•Firm long-term commitments: MV, Grameen
