Resumen
Descripción
In its 1986 study of poverty and hunger, the World Bank defined food security as
“assess by all people at all times to enough food for active and healthy life.” Based on this
definition, about a quarter of Africa’s population or more than 100 million people are food
insecure, i.e., do not consume enough food to allow for an active and healthy working life. In
seven countries, Ethiopia, Zaire, Uganda, Mozambique, Zambia, and Somalia, about 40% of the
population are food insecure, constituting more than half of the region’s population.
