Resumen
Descripción
With global challenges – climate change, rising food prices, epidemics – putting food security at risk, there is a renewed awareness of the crucial role agriculture plays in tackling hunger and malnutrition. It makes sense. Agriculture, fisheries and forestry are still the main sources of income in the rural areas where most of the world’s 854 million hungry people live. The European Union is one of FAO’s most steadfast and generous partners in promoting sustainable rural development to improve the lives of the poor. Working together on the ground in developing countries, improving food security in emergencies, promoting food safety and quality, upgrading information gathering, sharing know-how and fostering partnerships: the EU and FAO fight poverty at its root.
