1) Food Aid

Food aid is a crucial part of helping tackle world hunger. However,
food aid comes in various forms, and is often criticized for
benefiting donors and their interests more than recipients. For
example, during the Cold War in particular, food dumping
was common place. Today long term food aid is giving way
to emergency relief. While this is important it also has its
challenges. Ultimately it seems that food aid still helps the rich
more than the poor. This section provides an overview of food aid.

2) Food and Agriculture Issues

Throughout the site there are a number of articles and sections
related in some way to food, hunger, and agriculture. This page
simply collects them together and introduces them from one place.
